Anyway, this is an introduction so...
I have my 929, a Series 1 HC, for about 10 years now and still love driving it. I have made a few enhancements since owning it and virtually modified, replaced or repaired everything mechanical on it, save for a couple of items. But they are on the hit list too

This vehicle seems to be at the stage now where it really only gains interest from enthusiasts. There is still a few to be found around the country, some in good working order, some not. I just recently purchased another one, which is in excellent condition, bar the gearbox, and with 6 months rego on it. I am the third owner of the car since it was built. I purchased it as a parts car mainly, as bits and pieces are getting harder and harder to find, it is almost too good for that though. But if I cannot do anything with the gearbox without major expense then it will remain off the road and be relegated to a donor car

There is many things I like about the HC 929, some have been innovations by Mazda, the styling certainly does not scream at you, which is fine by me, but among the many things I love about the car now, is its relative uniqueness and rarity

I do miss the discussions about this car among other enthusiasts though.
