My 1.6 16v

Where's the pictures of it flattened like a pancake? LAME! Do it right,

More pics now!

*in for more carnage pics if you post up*

What an utter waste of time and money, I'll never go back again to this make of vehicle!

FYI you're posting this to people who actually appreciate this car, if you don't like MX-3's or any Mazdas then maybe you should buy a Hon-duh

Funny because you seemed to like it judging by your previous posts and all the time and work you put into it.

As a final good bye to you all, I picked up a new car, a car which I know well and truly. You say Hon-duh? Well this car is 3 years older than the MX3 was, the body is in far better condition, the under side isn't falling into complete and utter failure and it cost £100 less than the MX3. Hon-duh? I say, f*cking well played, this thing is solid, spotless and will keep going a hell of a lot longer than your heaps of Ford shite!





I am waiting with baited breath for an MX3 to make a magazine feature in the UK, somehow, I don't think that will happen, smell you later losers!

I like reading your posts. Always give me a chuckle.

Ford owned some 27% of Mazda when MX-3's were made, and Mazda built them. They build Fords cars for them, that was the deal. So calling a Probe a Mazda is more accurate than calling a MX-6 a Ford. You're just misinformed.

If you search you'll find various links of MX-3's in magazines, Hectors was in one, and there's an article in grassroots, off the top of my head. I don't know about UK magazines, but then again, I don't care either.

Glad you found a cx. Nice little commuter cars.

And of course, the underside situation of a car has to do with its life, not with its make. I've worked on many-a-honda with much worse rust than my MX...

Cheers with the Honda, I hope it serves you better than the MX.

And don't forget to put more stickers on it, and perhaps a bigger muffler.

What's the 1/4 mile on a honduh? Compared to a 500 dollar bp swapped mx?

[AaronTietje]

I've always liked those cars. In fact, I just spied a leather rear seat for one in my local yard .......I've never seen the leather in them before, so I'm thinking that it's quite rare. Anywho, nice car. Enjoy it, and the squirrel under the hood

sorry i have to say it. cause there honestly is so many bloody civics around where i live. and its a little saying at my work. civics are like hemeroids, every a--holes got one

get a b16 for it. v-tech sounds awesome. mind you i still prefer the vris solenoids

[Savin]

Still waiting for pics of the MX flattened or shredded...*sigh*

Carnage pictures of any car is just cool as long as no one is hurt.

[Josh]

Its a clean civic, throw some spacers in the rear and drop it 1.5" and you have it made.

[youdirtyfox]

Drop it 4.5" more like

[DeadMaker]

Really what exactly do you like in this car?Somehow it reminds me a bucket.But for sure you need to put some stickers on it..

[Nd4SpdSe]

Hondas are no better for rust than Mazda's are. Both the Civics and Mx-3's are known for their rear quarter panel rust. Surprised you found one in that well of a condition.

As people and thinking their Mazda's are made by Ford, lol, well put Dan!

But on the other end, there's Fords C1 platform, which is used on the very good and very successfully selling Mazda3 and how awesome the Escorts they have overseas:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_C1_platform

The C platform was designed in the Ford development center at Europe Cologne, Germany, as the "C Technologies Program". It was said to be one of the largest platform programs in history at that time. Ford Focus, Volvo S40 and V50, and Mazda3 share about 60 percent of their parts and components. Thirty engineers each from Ford, Mazda, and Volvo worked in Cologne for two years to combine the compact car engineering for all three automakers under the direction of Ford Director of C Technologies Derrick Kuzak, Ford of Europe vice president of product development.

Among all of the cars, the floorpan is different, but the front- and rear-subframes, suspension, steering, braking, safety, and electrical components are shared.

2003 – Ford Focus C-Max (C214), first European vehicle on this platform
2004 – Mazda 3 (BK)
2005 – Ford Focus (International) (C307), (Note: the Ford Focus (North America) continues on the C170 platform through 2010)
