despite it being old, the design, IMO, is still acceptable up to this date.
A simple mod with "attractive" and subtle skirtings would give its finest already.

My mistake, I forgot to mention earlier. SS15 is in Subang Jaya tongue.gif

My cousin's boyfriend has a Mazda Lantis 1.6, recently bought a 2.0 V6 halfcut. Seems quite sturdy although rust bubbles are starting to appear, but overall the car doesn't give him much problems.

i have been driving a Lantis for 3 years now and loving every moment. Of course there are the usual wear and tear issue but its not something no one can repair. Maintenance is expensive... i think that is over rated. Its not like maintaining a Proton but its not gonna cost you a bomb either.

There are plenty of chop shop with Lantis part around town (i mean PJ, Subang and KL). I just found a air-con compressor for RM150. I think a Proton air-con compressor cost around that too...

Lantis and Ford Lynx (as with most Ford and Mazda in this country) are mechanical twins, so for most Ford's part will fit nicely.

If you are bored with your 1.6 or 1.8, there is the K-series engine available for upgrade. Most common is the KFZE which is 2.0 V6. This is a really sweet engine and the upgrade cost is cheaper than most Honda.

Not everything is sweet with this car though... the frameless window can sometime be a little nuisance... after years of abuse, there are alway the issue of gaps when you close the door. There are simple solution to this. hop over to the local Lantis forum to meet and learn more about the Lantis.

Bottom line is do some research and then decide. Enjoy.

Just to share, some shots of my friend's previous Lantis (now in the hand of someone else).
He had the sunroof installed due to rust started to appear on the roof.
So the first thing you gonna check when getting used Lantis would be the roof.


How much was the sunroof? Quite cheap at RM500.

1.8L.... parts are very difficult to get and maintainence is costly..
basic service any shop can do.. but major stuff if u have to go back to C&C, it'll cost u a bomb
