1997 Mazda Xedos 6 Sport review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent sporty 4 seater with a superb engine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to change the nearside front brake caliper at about 70200 miles, but apart from brake shoes, spark plugs, oil filter and exhaust, I've not replaced anything else!
General comments?
The car is still fairly quick and will see most cars off up to about 120 mph. Ideal for putting sporty hatchbacks in their place if necessary!
Handling is not great on winding country roads. I think lowered suspension would improve this dramatically.
Brakes are very good however and will always respond well.
Even after 5 years the car's interior is like new and all electrics etc work perfectly.
Superb V6 engine is the best thing about the car!
