Selling our reliable and spacious 8-seater Mazda Biante. We've owned it for the past 5 years and it's been a great family vehicle. Very economical on fuel for its size — around $130 to fill from empty. Only selling as we're moving and can’t take it with us.
Features:
2-month-old battery
Good tyres
Head unit is half English/half Japanese (GPS uses Japanese memory card)
Rear seats fold down for extra space
Great for long trips and family use
Things to note:
WOF expires this month – selling as is, no time to renew
Minor dent on lower boot (see photo)
Rear right tail light has a crack (see photo)
Minor scratches and stone chips on front bumper (seen in photos)
Curbing on rims
Brakes may need attention (slight squeak when reversing)
Cosmetic issues do not affect WOF
Overall:
Still drives well and has plenty of life left. A solid, roomy 8-seater perfect for families or anyone needing extra space.

Those who have sat their written drivers test recently will be in the know, but be honest, did you know it was illegal?
