That's what I've done with the FL1 with it's slipping gearbox, 2x locked shut rear doors, and clumping sunroof...while I decide what to do with it..... really don't like crawling around on a wet cold floor in the dark...
I need to get it serviceable before the Mazda lease is up, which is February, so it's got to get done, even if it's cold and wet.
I might look at it over the Christmas break, as I'm off work for a couple of weeks.
