2000 Mazda Protege LX review from North America
"Reliable car for the low price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bad: radiator cracked, but it was under warranty.
Makes a squeak around the wheels.
Sometimes a very slow start.
General comments?
Good: Very comfortable car which I enjoy very much. It isn't very fast, but it is a good car to get me from one place to another. If I was to get another car I would definately consider another Mazda.
