Mazda 323 Fastback 1.5i GLX 5d (1996/N) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Excellent, especially if bought private.
Costs
Mazda servicing and spares very expensive. Find a local independant garage/spares.

On the road
Driving
Rewarding. Almost sporty.
Performance
Suprisingly nippy. A little more oomph at lower speed be nice. Not a road urner.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Mazda reliability second to none.
Image
Even at 6 years old, the styling can't be beaten.
Comfort
Good comfortable driving position. Road noise intrudes at higher speeds.
-
Security and Service
Security
Standard immobiliser. Fitted my own alarm. Flimsy locks.
Service
Customer service fine. Pricing far too expensive.
