Nice timing Paul - was about to post another, for the BG GT enthusiasts on here. Shame they're breaking it and not selling as a whole

ZXi on RetroRides, looks luvverly and not too bad a price either http://retrorides.proboards.com/thread/195200/mazda-323-zxi-24v-oxford

AutoTrader has a C reg (1985?) BD 5-door manual for £1,000 (although the ad says 3-door).

Sorry I'm not clever enough to post a link or picture!

This one looks to be a ripper. (Name is a link to the gumtree page, while it exists)
Mazda 323 1977

The number plate is very original too. However I believe the front has been 'Americanised' as pointed out in the text on gumtree as the grilles in Oz were different (horizontal bars/slats with a small Mazda in a top corner). Also the indicators/parking lights I believe are incorrect, the should be white(top)/orange as white (not amber) parking lights are required in Oz, it's also how I remember them to be.

There's a lot of 323s on sale at the moment, in Oz, must be something to do with end of year perhaps? Have a troll through gumtree.com.au. Just missed a BA 323 V6 with only 108k km on the clock, went within hours of listing.

Here's a similar one (link to gumtree page also):
1979 323


Interestingly, Medlow Bath and Blackheath are basically neighbouring villages in the Blue Mountains so cars may be from the same collector?

(Update)
And another 1977 one...


Patrick

Now I might've said that there are some good low km BAs turning up in Oz... if not I might just do a bit of a rambling post about it. This one just about takes the cake though.

See here on carsales.com.au

!!! If it was manual I might make an offer and skip a day just to go get it (wouldn't I be in trouble...with the wife for getting another one, that is )

Patrick

Daaa.n.. it looks like it just get out of the shop..Besides the exhaust pipe everything underneat is in verry good shape.It's almoust like a restored car.Where do they kept it?In a special warehouse with light and moisture control,turning the engine every Tuesday for 30 mins?

That is amazing, if it was a manual it'd be almost worthwhile snatching it from under you lot and import it over here to the UK

Naaah, just move 'down under' and keep it rust free



Yes, saw that rust too. Interesting spot for it. As for where it is stored, you may not be too far wrong. My rambling opinions about that and why are here.

Patrick

Another on gumtree:

LOW KMS Maxda 323 Astina

Price is a bit steep seeing it's unregistered but at least looks in good nick from the photos apart from standard red paint fade in Oz.

Again bit of a bummer it's auto.

Patrick

In WA, Oz

1994 Mazda 323 Astina Turbo Hatch 12 Sec Car Manual 250Hp

He's asking a fair amount but I guess you're getting a fair bit for your money esp. if you can't do this yourself. Just wonder if it's actually road-legal.

Patrick

Here's a nice one in Oz again...BJ w/ just over 100k km. Again on Gumtree.
1992 Mazda 323 Hatch Aircon P/steer 102xxxkm.

(Hopefully the image link works below...dunno how long it'll remain there though)


Patrick

The most I've seen so far...488,000km (that's ~303,000 miles) but still looks neat.



See this link for a couple more photos (whilst it's there of course).

There were issues in Oz in the 80's with Japanese-built (and one or two Japanese-sourced, Aussie built ones) cars not running to more that ~80,000km w/o needing a rebuild, usually due to worn piston rings. I think that's 'cos cars in Japan simply didn't go over that many klms before being renewed. They'd well and truly fixed that issue by the early 90's- seen quite a few go over 400,000 km as long as the maintenance is kept up.

Patrick

502,012km, no engine rebuild (claimed) although now looks like the paddock basher...
