Mazda Bravo 2002

[101Bravo]

Mazda Bravo, 2002


Good Points
Not too heavy. Can tow my Jayco. Can fit heaps of gear plus the family + dog.

Bad Points
Not as much after market stuff as a Toyota but it didn't have the price tag either.
More grunt would be good - but I have a different toy for grunt


What mods have you done?
Bighorns, ARB Rear Locker, EFS 2" Lift, HD Clutch

What mods are on the list to do?
Bigger Bighorns - 31" would be a step up for me

Why did you buy this vehicle?
Price price and price. Sold my D22 cause I just could not justify beating up a 30K vehicle.

How often do you go offroad?
every 3-4 weeks and it almost always goes into Youtube.com/qldbrays

Here's some fun in the yard at home with a Helmet Cam




Marcrh Trip to Bribie




Feb 2010 - drowned a Prado in this one



What will your next vehicle be?
No plans - no ideas - too many great options out there

Looks a great 4by. Like the idea of the rear mounted video.

Yep, that's me. I do have plans to venture back in to area, just finding time at present with the house on the market. I hate the mud, to much clearing up involved. Have to see if a small group is heading out on a Sunday afternoon, I should be able to make it. Saturdays is making sure the house is clean and presentable to the public

I agree the mud. fun to watch someone else. clean up is the killer.

Agree, love watching others in the mud

Found myself a nice UHF CB with remote head. Installed on Sat ready for Easter.

Since the Bravo does not have much dashboard room I stashed the main unit under my cupholders !!






Getting ready for Easter with my Helmet mount ready fit as soon as we get to the fun stuff

Here are some videos from Glendon - a nice spot for camping 4X4 and motorbikes.

Just my Bravo



3 of us playing

Great video, like the helmet cam on the back that produced some great action

[101Bravo]

thanks bmurray - at one stage there it copped a lense full of mud. a quick lick and polish and it was good to go. I gotta say it was fun out-performing the prado too no offence mate. there was a time when the prado ran rings around me - was the older model prado tho. my mate has upgraded and it just does not seem to be as good.
