2000 Mazda Premacy LX DTI 2

Summary:

Not complete enough for that money

Faults:

No problems with the car, start always.

General Comments:

They sold the Car to me telling me it was build on the 626 Base. After a couple of month I discovered that this was not true!! It is based on th 323.

It's to noisy, and not complete enough for the money that it cost.

Missing Variable interval on wipers back and front.

Missing control light for window washer level.

Missing temprature indicator on the dashbord (frost detection).

Missing Sun-roof is not available on this model when you want a TDI engine.

It's a fine car, but when you drive more than some kilometers per day, it is not good enough. Will I buy an other Mazda YES!! a Premacy? Never again.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

According to the Dog and Lemon Guide, which I have in New Zealand, the car is based off of a 626.

Not the 626, the 323 is the base. The guide is mistaken.

I had a Premacy and it was a great cheap secondhand alternative to the unreliable Zafira - cheaper and better!

Some elements are from the 626, but most of them based on the 323.
