ive decided to go for an mx-3 and i have a few questions :
having owned 7 323fs in the past they all had a few very common probs
drivers door handles went on all 7 , cv joints always go , drivers side electric windows . etc etc ..........
my questions about the mx3 are :
should i go for the 1.6 or the 2l v6 ?( ive heard fuel ecconomy is bad , although prob nothing compared to 35 miles to a £10 of petrol in the nissan 3l v6 !
what year is better ? ( i was thinking 96 / 97 ?
ive saw a few special editions with leather interior , they look good
i think silver or black if i can get it .
what should i look out for when buying / test driving ?
what common probs do they have ?
and any other comments / suggestions would be great !
thanks a lot
