    No, you just get to be the winner I guess the question really isn't fair, since it's a pretty generic Japanese gauge cluster.

    Here's a hint. It has a 1.8L in-line 4 with 125HP. (It's faster than it sounds though )

        Close, but not quite...

            Well, at least the Mazda 323 dash looks like the one you posted: http://www.pinewoodmazda.com/sales/m...23/new3231.htm
            Edit: Sorry, it appears that the vehicle named Mazda 323 here is named Mazda Protégé in Canada... So I think Zokes is right

                Mileage limit ?

                I didn't know till now that when you lease a car it has this limit;
                there is no car maker/importer here (in my country) - at least that I know of - that leases a car with a limit for the km. you can drive, with extra money after that.
                However, when you buy a new car, there are a few companies that offer one with, usualy 3yrs/100.000km warranty. There's one model (Mazda 323 F) that has 50.000km free maintainance included.

                  Mazda Protege

                  My wife just bought an MP5 and it is a blast to drive.

                      The Protege seemed alright when I checked it out. Too small for me though. I couldn't get the steering wheel off my knees. It's bigger on paper than the Sentra I ended up buying, but I fit fine in my car.

                        Yup, Zokes is the winner. Aren't you proud? It's a 2000 LX 1.8L.

                        Wombat, that's very surprising. I've owned a 1998 and now this 2000 Protege, and I fit very nicely, even with a sunroof. I'm 6'6" (198 cm), with a 38" inseam. It's one of the few cars out there that I can sit in comfortably. The back seat is even usable behind me!

                          Can't explain it. I'm 6'1", large frame. Rags had the same experience. I could have managed if I kept my knees wide apart, but that's not how I drive.

                            Funny, Wombat, I'm 6'2 and gangley - and I cant drive most Jap cars either....

                            I found a more comfortable driving position in the Renaults or even a Mini (old type)!

                            I have that Italian slouch drive position.... almost reclining (my shoulder behind the 'B' post.... Knees apart with usually my arms draped forward.....

                            My Physio friends would love to hear that!
