Hi, I bought this car in good faith that everything was working etc... only to unfortunately find out the car overheated on a 37degree day.

The head gasket is definitely stuffed. It does start and drive but I'd definitely recommend a tow. (You can give it a quick drive to test clutch, box etc) Its all good. 220k kms on the clock, I did about 60kms in it -.-

Here is a link to the advertisement from the person I bought the car off. (Has additional specs and pics)

Would suit someone mechanically minded I suppose. I don't have the skills or the money (money in Supra..) to fix it so it needs to go (nor does my dad :rolleyes: ). The rego on it is worth a few hundred at least. (Expires May) Clutch is good, as is the gearbox. The AC was ice cold. It has a cheap MP3 deck. Has very good tread on all the tyres. Its a pretty clean car - too good to wreck imo.



Guys, if you call to view, please do at least let me know if you can't make it. I don't live where the car is located and it is a 1hr 15min return trip for me, all for nothing!

If it's still there after Christmas, or the Mazda sells sooner then expected, I'll be giving you a call :)
