1997 Mazda 323 Venetian review from UK and Ireland
"Different, but very enjoyable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only had the car 3 months so no real problems yet apart from when warm/hot it tends to nearly cut out when coming to a halt.
Couple of lamps have blown.
Passenger electric window stopped working.
General comments?
A nice, quickish car to drive.
Good looking and a sporty feel to it.
Good handling and comfort.
Reliable so far.
