The Mazda Familia, also marketed prominently as the Mazda 323, is a small family car that was manufactured by Mazda between 1963 and 2003. The Familia line was replaced by the Mazda3 from 2004.
It was marketed as the Familia in Japan, which means "family" in Italian. For export, earlier models were sold with nameplates including: "800", "1000", "1200", and "1300". In Europe, all Familias sold after 1977 were called "323".
Familia appeared in November 1967 with the same pushrod 985 ccm engine as used in the previous generation sedans. It was sold as the "Mazda 1000" in some markets. In July 1968 the rotary-engined version (R100) was introduced, along with a new coupé bodywork. After an April 1970 facelift (called the "Familia Presto" in the domestic Japanese market), the slightly different OHC "PC" 1-liter engine was also offered.
This Mazda 1000 Sedan is a two owners car and it was for the last 13 years displayed in the Mazda Villach dealership. All original in exceptional condition for a 50 years old car.
