1999 Mazda B2500 4-Action Double Cab review from UK and Ireland
"A good hard-working companion"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. I've had no work done on this truck except for routine maintenance.
General comments?
The 2.5 litre 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine fitted to the B2500 is very reliable, but could do with more power.
Double cab body style is much more practical than the single cab.
Quite comfortable to drive and reasonably refined. Much more comfortable and refined than a Land Rover Defender.
It is proving resistant to rust too, which is good as I find a lot of working trucks are prone to it.
It's very well built and just feels strong and durable.
Holds the road well, but feels a bit unwieldy in town due to it's size. This is a fairly big vehicle.
