Other Mazda 6 (2012 - 2023) models:

  • Summary

    2 out of 5 2.0

    What does this car say about you?

    Not sure, may be that I could not afford a German premium brand.

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    Love the looks.

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    No. I think the way Mazda have handled the issue with the infotainment system has been nothing short of a disgrace. Thousands world wide have the same issue but Mazda appear not to care or want to resolve. I really wanted to give this car a higher score but I cannot whilst this and the wind noise issue remian.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    Merc or BMW.

    What's it like to drive?

    Love the drive, very responsive and great handling for a big car.
