    Greetings from Croatia

    Hi, people, Im Slavenko, from Croatia, and I'm 31 year old.
    Just bought 1990. Protege LX with few hundert tousand kilometers on the meter.
    It's in relatively good shape considering the age. Allmost no rust, decent engine, but pretty bad interior.
    I intend to drive it as-is for now, but with big plans for the future.
    Here are a few pictures, sorry for low quality (thanks to i****).
    The sunroof is in a bad shape, but not leekin even in the hardest rain :D
    Pics are thumbnails

          I thought so. Are there many BP-ZEs in Croatia?

            Not many. There are some USDM Proteges, but you can find them mostly in the BG 323F GT models.
            There used to be more of them, but most of them have been killed

                You have the same exterior color like mine! Is it 6N?

                    I'm in strong doubts as for this sentence
                    Too much salt on the roads during winters isn't conducive to the preservation of paint and steel

                      I live in Dalmatia, seaside part of Croatia, where my Protege spent most of its life, and that has its good and bad sides.
                      My steel is in really great condition, even the suspension parts, with allmost no rust, but the sun has taken its toll on the paint.
