"Unreliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

List is long - it's been in the garage 24 times.

Rusting rear wheel arches - a major problem I am told on all 6's from 52 to 54 reg. Drivers side painted 4 times, and now replaced - other side waiting replacement. Mazda's fix does not work. I have 2 friends at work with the same problem. WATCH OUT.

New speedo at 15K.

Alternator belt tensioner replaced twice. Both went at aprox 15K, bearing noisy.

Computer 20% out - ran out of fuel with 70 miles remaining.

4 sets of alloys - keep rusting.

Front disks warped - replaced.

Caravan club write up states 10% of users have had clutches go at under 40K???

General comments?

Other than my issues. it's a lovely car to drive. Handles well and pulls a 6.5m caravan with no problem.

What sort of rust do you get on alloy wheels?
