Chris Green Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Decided it was about time to pick up a new daily, as the starlet has now been retired to the garage for some much needed TLC. I wanted something comfortable as there isn't much left of my spine after driving the EP for 3+ years. Here's a few photos. Not loving the 16" wheels, so will be changing them soon enough. Don't really have much plans for it at the moment, just a case of driving it and enjoying it. Edited October 29, 2014 by Chris Green Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie5414 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Very classy As you say not too keen on the alloys it has on now, Once they are changed it'll finish it off nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Green Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Carried out a service on this yesterday. Done the following. 1. 6 liters of castrol magnatech 3w302. OEM Oil Filter3. OEM Fuel Filter4. OEM Pollen Filter5. OEM Air Filter6. Mazda Long Life Coolant (free through work)7. OEM Front Discs & Pads8. OEM Rear Discs & Pads9. Brake Fluid Change Also got the centers of the discs powdercoated to prevent surface rust. When I put the car on the ramp the O/S/R shock started leaking badly, so that needs done. Only thing that worries me is the price, close to £700 for two rear shocks. Meister's may be on the cards... Edited March 23, 2014 by Chris Green Quote Link to post Share on other sites
