2. Off brand tires (Barum?). Rears are in great shape, but the fronts have some wear on the inside of them. Stock wheels repainted graphite grey by myself. After 23 years of brake dust/grime they needed a refinish.
3. AutoCheck doesn't list an accident, but at one point in it's life it was tapped in the front driver side. No frame damage. Fender replaced with factory fender. The driver door has been repainted, but does not match the rest of the car. No fading of paint, but there are some dings and dents (nothing serious). 
5.  Early Miata's have been prone to rusting, but this Miata has lived in the southern states most of it's lifetime. Minor surface rust on the underside in the rear and no rust on the body. The muffler doesn't look factory, and for appearance reasons should be replaced. It does not leak. Needs a good degreasing to the underside. There is a heat shield that rattles slightly when started when cold.
5. Interior is clean. Driver seat has minor wear to the side bolster. Small crack on dash, but hardly noticeable. Needs a shift boot.

2014 Mazda6 recalled due to fuel overfill fire risk

Fri, 02 May 2014

Mazda is recalling 19,000 Mazda6 sedans from model year 2014, over concerns that the fuel tanks can be filled up too much. What is it with Mazda and fuel tanks?
The big concern is, obviously, spillage when filling up. There's also a risk that a radical temperature swing could cause the fuel volume to expand, causing a full tank to spill over without the driver knowing about it. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, if the fuel spills over, it could end up in something called the charcoal canister, which helps with the car's emissions. If it fills up the canister, it could leak out onto the road. None of this is really desirable.
The affected vehicles were all built between October 25, 2012 and May 9, 2013. It's unclear if there have been any fires due to this problem. Dealers should have been notified by now, while owners should begin receiving official recall notifications very soon.

Farmer moves illegally parked car with tractor

Wed, May 4 2016

Bad parking in London can get you a ticket or the boot, but bad parking in the West Country is treated in a more direct manner. One motorist learned this fact in early May when a video published by The Daily Mail showing a farmer moving a car with his tractor went viral. Lianne Dunn and Ally Boxall were out for a drive near Marksbury when they came upon a strange sight. Coming at them down the narrow country lane was a tractor with a red Mazda6 perched on its front-end loader attachment. One of the women pulled out her cell phone and filmed the odd scene while the other backed into a convenient driveway to let the tractor past. As the tractor trundled by with its load, they asked the young man guiding the driver what was going on. "They parked in this chap's drive," he said in his broad, West Country burr. "He asked us to move the car, nobody claimed it." When asked where the pair were taking the car, the unnamed farmer replied, "We're going to put it up on the main road. It's the police's problem then." The two women, obviously entertained by the spectacle, exchange a few more words with the young farmer before they finally drive off. "This is the best!" one of the women says as on the video. "Never piss a farmer off!"
