Here’s a fantastic find – a one-family owner, Perth delivered, original and correct Mazda 808 with just 96,000km.

It’s the updated version with minor technical revisions, readily identified by the wide grille and separate headlights. In Australia the automatic version was only available in Deluxe trim.

This remarkable example was sold new by Mazda Morley to a buyer for his wife, as he could no longer drive. The family Holden was traded-in on it. In 1982, the wife gave up driving and the car changed hands to a daughter-in-law to drive. But by 1984, she had to give up driving due to her health and the car mostly sat in their garage. The car underwent some refurbishment in 2019 – the engine was refreshed, brakes rebuilt and new tyres fitted, readying the car (now a classic) for more regular use.

However, the car was kept in the garage it had been in for so many years and still used little. In 2021 the house was sold and the car moved to a storage unit. In the last five years the 808 has covered about 1000km, just on occasional weekend outings. The car is now the property of a grand daughter of the original owner.

This Mazda remains in exceptional, original condition throughout. There had been towelling seat covers on the car since new – removed for the first time for the photo session. Carpet mats did the same protective job for the original. Internal fittings are all straight, complete and correct.

The bodywork is tidy, straight and all external trim is as it should be, with the exception of the front bumper which has some ripples visible. Underneath, the car is remarkably clean and original too.

Unfortunately the handbooks have been lost, but the original tool roll, jack and Mazda touch-up paint tin remain with the car. It has its original plates XMT364.

This car is a unique proposition – realistically priced. Chances of finding another like it are extremely slim. Don’t miss this opportunity.
