Hi all,
I'm taking a look at a second hand Mazda B2300 tomorrow, after taking a new Ranger out for a test drive this week. Sadly couldn't afford the new one but this second hand one is promising.
Just wondering if there's anything I should check specifically?
B2300, 1996, regular cab, 140k km (so just under 90,000 miles). Apparently the clutch was changed 11k km ago. It's a manual, obviously!
I'm in Ottawa, though I'm from the UK
Oh and a question - how do you do hill starts without a handbrake?!
Cheers, looking forward to becoming "one of you"!
