Lets remember that there are some very 'special' people out there, and it's not for us to judge their taste in automotive transport.

Meh, it's not too bad. Throw the bodykit, ICE and interior in a skip and you're left with a reasonable car. Cheapish too, for a turbo.

Cheap for the spec, isn't it?

Sounds like it has the low power 90 bhp engine though (1.6 from a 95 car) - or was that just UK? Was the JDM 1.6 still 115bhp in 95?

Anyway, balaclava and dark glasses for the drive home, strip off bodykit, wheels, & spoiler and sell, and you've got something fun and cheap, surely?

yes

Offer £3,200, sell the crap on Ebay, and it would be a nice car.

Edit: "Mazda speed four point harnesses (currently just for show-not fitted)" hehe

The 90bhp was UK only. Might be wrong but I thought there were no JDM 1.6 cars after about 1994/5, when they continued with the 1.8 only.

Sadly the spoiler is not included. Although you can secure it for an extra £495.

Is it just me that thinks the rest of the body kit looks like that red escort mk3 with the 'Venom' kit or what ever that automotive equivilent of a stroke is called?

Whats going on by the numberplate? aside from the stty bodykit i mean. Is that a 'oh crap i need a number plate light for the MOT' move?

Also, splitter removed so you can get the car on the driveway eh... it appears to be a drop kerb from a flat road onto a flat driveway. Wonder if it grounds on 1mm bits of salt out when the roads are gritted smile

Its funny how they spend all that money ruining a car and think that its worth that much. also if you look at most chav cars where theyve moved the number plate there all fitted with those cheap lights from trailer shops.
