2008 Mazda 6 Sport Estate review from UK and Ireland
"Good build quality, but noisy and underpowered, with a hard ride. No other complaints"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None.
General comments?
I've had this car for 12 months, and found that the ride is hard and the engine is noisy even for a diesel. This has become more annoying over time.
The engine is underpowered for its class. I bought the car specifically for the purpose of towing a caravan. It performed fine on a test drive, but is sluggish when pulling a caravan. I now understand why Mazda have dropped this model and replaced it with the larger 2.2L version.
