    I drive 40000 miles a year and have a budget of about 8k to spend max with a 5 year old i30 as p/x. What would you recommend.

  • Mazda 6 diesel - Whirring noise on acceleration 16 Oct 2011 (Forum)
    I have 2005 Mazda 6 estate 2.0 diesel. Cambelt changed last month at 56,000 miles and water pump checked. Recently it has started making a whirring noise on acceleration both in and out of gear. Someone has suggested it could be the alternator bearings or possibly the power steering leaking.
  • Mazda 3 - Slip |ndicator Warning light 4 Aug 2011 (Forum)

  • Mazda MX5 (1989 - 1998) - Twenty years old - remember when...... 12 Feb 2010 (Forum)
    ....... it was first launched? Mazda are releasing a 20th anniversary edition. Thats 2 decades of pretty much the same car! It debuted when the Citroen XM was European Car of the Year. In the same year, the Rover Metro was launched, and Skoda 130L, Lada Riva 1200L and Yugo 511 were all still about!
  • Mazda mx5 Roadster coupe 12 Feb 2007 (Forum)
    Been considering one of these latest offerings from Mazda.But a price tag of £21000 for basicly what is an mx5 we're almost in Z4 territory.And the dealers won't budge on price.I suspect that Mazda regard the soft top as their heritage and realise that the coupe may become too popular.Hence they keep the prod numbers down and prices high.It's got leather ,2.0 litre engine climate, heated seats and all the usual lsd ,dsc etc-but is it worth it?
  • Mazda 6, due for facelift??? 17 Oct 2006 (Forum)
    A colleague's company BMW is due for replacement in April, but he has to have decided and ordered by January. He is quite keen on getting a Mazda 6 but he has heard that this model is coming up for a facelift soon and is a little cautious. He asked me, but I don't really pay much attention to news about new cars (I prefer to run older cars), so thought I'd ask you guys.
