Not really a fan of these cars but a good project at a reasonable price. Is there no-where else to put the front registration plate as where it is (i know its standard for this mk) is horrendous it would look better down the front somewhere.
There are a couple of holes in the bumper lower than where the plate currently is.
Maybe a square one offset in the lower corner would look better.

Yea the square offset one like you see on RX8 and S2000's sometimes would look sweet. It could turn into a very nice car if a fair amount is spent. Are you planning on keeping it or just gonna do it up a bit and then sell it on?

It'll be interested to see the project unfold because as it stands it looks like a bit of a shed Laughing

Any idea where it was first registered, as there's a Mazda dealership just down the road in Bognor and loads of cars round here have JOT on the reg plate.

Planning on giving Mazda a call tomorrow to find out the service history.
I'll find out that too.

Yeah it needs a lot of work on the body but mechanically its very good.

Oredered a genuine cambelt kit from Mazda, £38 Very Happy

Another plus is that changing the belt can be done in under an hour (in theory Laughing )
