  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    So so. Could be better, but the car is 12 years old and it has to be expected.

    As standard, mediocre. Nothing a Cat1 can't sort out.

    Service

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Have used an RX7 specialist so far as Mazda don't really know much about them!
