Hey All. Just managed to buy my sisters TX5 Gia. Bought for $180. Paid her additional $420 as she owed $600 to original owner. What an awesome car. Absolutely immaculate condition. My partner fixed up left guard and light problems due to an accident her son had. Will the Mazda 626 Bumper fix straight on. Just wrote off my 2005 Barina ( spanish model) and was just gonna use this car till insurance comes thru...but have totally fallen in love with it. 204,000 kms so quiet Have heard they were originally $25k to buy. Trans needs service. Are they a good an reliable car . all help appreciated.
Cheers Judy C (PS my 1968 Fairmont V8 wagon coming along very nicely) |

We've got an 89 gia, with similar kms on it. Had to do the clutch on it and thats about it so far. If its been well looked after you shouldnt have any hassels with it. My brother had one also, and it went well beyond 300K until he cooked it, not the cars fault, he isnt very mechanically minded.
I believe alot of the 626 stuff does bolt on, cant tell you for sure though.
