This Festiva is being sold for PARTING OUT because of rust issues.
The Festiva engine is a Mazda B series noninterference engine, (if the timing belt breaks, no harm is done to the engine).
It has 145,686 miles.
Has an automatic transmission which we never had issues with. Since we owned it, we did have the fluid and filter changed in it.
We kept the oil changed every 3,000 miles
Gets approximately 35 miles per gallon.
Has A/C but we never got around to fixing it.
It has the original back compartment cover.
The tires are all good and still inflated, not flat.
All the locks work.
No cracks in windows.
We changed the calipers and rotors, but it has been sitting for 3 years.
The engine needs valve cover gaskets, they are oily.
The struts and springs on front are bad, axles possibly are bad also.
There is rust issues and mold on the inside.
Why we are selling it......
We had this Festiva on the road for 6 years, with no mechanical issues. But, something
developed possibly, electrical we couldn't seem to run out and find. It got so that it would start and run fine, and then quit and would not start back up. Our garage mechanics could not fine the issue.
We changed the air filter, pcv valve, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, fuel filter, fuel pump, but the problem still persisted. We now suspect that possibly the issue might be in the ignition control module in the distributor.
After towing it to several mechanics, we just gave up and sadly one of the windows got left open without us knowing it and it got wet inside and got moldy. We open the hatch to let it air out as much as possible and it seems to smell a bit better.
It does have a new battery but it needs a slow trickle charger to bring it back up.
We kept the car until now to take parts of it to keep our aspire on the road, but now we found another aspire to drive and will use the old aspire now for parts if we have to, so this needs to go and we also had to buy another car to which we are making payments on to basically replace this car.
This car is very rusty, especially underneath, but the engine, transmission etc are all good.
It isn't roadworthy, so you will have to bring a hauler to haul it off, even if it was up and running, it's too rusty underneath to trust out driving now.
Will load up more photos of under the hood later when I get the chance to take them.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best
Tue, May 3 2016Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.

Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
