Pls be guided. ALL cars manufactured are tested and certified according to some permissible standards. The only criteria for buying a car is age and condition. Make is inconsequential especially when bought brand new. I'm sure those castigating Mazda3 haven't used it; still reveling in the century old toyota\honda superiority.are ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ unaware of the beamer and benz unrivalled superiority!? Why not go for dem? Cash ehn in a nut shell buy the condition not the make and from experience cars within the same age range use the same technology irrespective of the make.

Pleases I need ur advice bfor I go to Di's road side Mech to start gazing, my 626 Mazda over heats pls wat do I do or go for ? Mazda gurus advice needed.

Hello All,

I have a question for those with insight on the mechanical aspects of motor vehicles and anyone who owns or has owned a Mazda. I am in the process of buying a used vehicle and would like to know what your views are on the reliability of Mazdas; in my case, the Mazda 3. From my research the Honda civic is king in the compact car category and should be the obvious choice but alas it lies beyond my price range hence my interest in the Mazda 3 (also, the Protege was given favourable reviews from owners I know).

My areas of concern include their ability to hold up to hard driving conditions, the rate at which problems with the engine, transmission, etc are experienced and any other issues of this sort.

Thank you all for your input and I look foward to reading your responses.

Hello, Let me give you my humble opinion. I never use to think of mazda untill i came to Port Harcourt where it is used predominantly for taxi through all the rough and bad terrain, then i ask myself the question could mazda be this strong?

Let me tell you the truth , if Mazda weren't that strong and economical as well as good on the pocket , it wouldn't be used over here for cab services . On my further digging into this ride as it picked my interest sharply, i was into another surprise, it saves fuel even more than the well known Toyota Corolla and besides very cheap to purchase. If i were looking for an economical car for my siblings, its Mazda i would have bought , precisely the Mazda 3. It's a confirm reliable and economical car, besides the Mazda 3 looks great with some nice sporty looks. I am not a fan of front wheel nor Jap mobile , but i have to be sincere here
