1995 Mazda Protege LX review from North America
"Good and reliable, expensive parts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch
water pump
starter engine (expensive!)
other minor things.
General comments?
Great mid size car.
Japanese engine, assembled in Canada.
My girl bought it, and we have used it a lot.
long travels to Canada, San Francisco, etc.
Good car with small engine that feel clumsy specially on highway, not to comfortable in long trips.
Very expensive to repair, but it doesn't break often, good good gas mileage, very maneuverable.
