1992 Mazda Protege DX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After 5 years the radiator rusted out and had to be replaced, but probably because I live in a highly snowy area with lots of salt on the roads. The brakes had to be done at about 100K miles. I just had the timing belt and others replaced at 110K.
General comments?
Great car. I don't know about the newer years but this 92 has served me very well at a very good price. I get about 38 mpg highway, plenty of room, zip, and comfort. I suggest it highly.
