My old man had one of those, the very last of the Mazda 323s before the Mazda 3 was released, bought it new in 2003.



It made it to 429,000km before it shat its OEM clutch and it got the viking funeral.

It went 140,000km between oil changes once, I pulled the sump off it for lols to see what it looked like - this was when it had around 330,000km on the clock:







Used to do **** like this with it all the time too:



That trailer is over 40 years old, was a home made job by a family friend decades ago when his son was born.

These days with cars you put 91 in them and they crack the ****s.

The old man is adamant he did the right thing because he saved so much money on servicing
