1996 Mazda 323 GXi review from UK and Ireland
"Unique and enjoyable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As yet no problems at all, one reason that I bought the car was that it was rated as highly reliable with unique looks.
General comments?
I bought this car also because my wife liked the sporty style and the kids could go in the back. I fitted a set of alloys and low profile tires which really set it off. Only minor complaints are reduced rear vision and the 1500 lacks a little bit of power (I could not afford the V6, 2000cc). I would buy another, but it has been replaced with a new body shape and lost its looks.
