Mazda Xedos 9 Miller 2000 This next car from the same Mazda collection is a rare Xedos 9 Miller. Now for those of you that do not know what Miller in the context of this cars name means and would like to know more than we have room here to tell you please look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_cycle but to put it in simple words Miller was a damn clever engineer that almost discovered the Holy Grail of Internal Combustion engine ie. More power with better economy thrown in! With very little warning in 1998 Mazda introduced the Miller engine into their mundane family saloon car the 2.5litre V6 Xedos 9. Now what we didnt mention that by tampering with the original engines valve timing the Miller gave a flat spot on full throttle to cure this a Supercharger (yes you read that right! O nearly forgot to mention the intercooler as well !!) was used to iron this out. What this also did was up the horse power from 150 to well over 200! So while giving over 30 MPG you now have a fairly normal looking saloon car all be very well equipped one that was quoted at a very brisk 9 second 060mph figure and a 143mph top speed! This first one of two Millers we have entered is offered with NO Reserve. Having failed its last MOT in 2016 for two silly things an insecure front number plate and a corroded front brake pipe it was then left to be done later. That never happened so there is NO MOT on this car. A member of our staff has driven the car on private roads and reports that while it pulls very well changes gears correctly and all the electrics seem to work (air con not tested) there is a noise from the front right hand wheel area that becomes better when braking with this in mind this car is not safe to drive home until this is investigated. It will need to be recovered. The body work has suffered with various bumps and bruises around the car but the very wellappointed leather trimmed interior is in excellent condition needing little more than a wipe over. If you want a rare Japanese car with good performance just needing some TLC this is a good proposition and with no reserve it will sell to the highest bidder.
