2001 Mazda 626 Sedan DITD Active review from Romania
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It is an excellent car. Bought for only 14,500 Euros CIP, full options, at that time and considering this manufacturer, it was an excellent choice. I would not sell for (almost) anything in the world.
I've done thorough checkups every year and everything works fine!
A perfect car, pity that parts prices at the authorized service centre are high and they simply do not care about their customers. There are some very nice people at the official importer that can help you, but it's hard to find them and there are too few of them.
General comments?
Those who like driving would prefer a stronger engine, but if I take into consideration the fuel consumption (maximum 7 l/100 km), it's OK.
