Help! Info required on AV3 1.5 Imports   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1073 of 1205 |
Hello all,
We're contemplating buying an MX3, as my brother used to own one and it
was excellent. I saw one this weeekend (a K Reg for £900) which was a
1.5 AV3 Import. The 1.5 bit is attractive from a Tax point of view, and
it seemed to have all the bells and whistles.
There was one problem with it, the Aircon didn't work chiefly because
there was no condenser!

It begged two questions:
How easy would it be to get replacement parts for a 1.5 import?
and
Are all 4-Cylinder AV3s 1.5 litres, or are there also 1.6 litre
versions as all I can see on Autotrader is 1.6s?

Any help with the above would be gratefully received as we'd like to
join the throng

Thanks

Martin

Ah yes, the Autozam label was a Mazda attempt to tap into a different domestic market, another one was Eunos. The picture was so complicated that Japanese...
