Pls house help, I want want to buy a family car, and i saw this Mazda Premacy 2000 model. pls advice me on this car in terms of fuel economy availability of parts. will it be a good buy compaired to toyota picnic.

Main problem: Suspension issues. Also brakes not very hard wearing and very hard on tyres.

Parking brake operates on rear discs and is never very effective but can become next to useless when the cables stretch.

Owners' Review:

Fuel economy is average as are other parts costs. A rear light (a huge vertical unit) is fairly pricey.The Premacy is quite nice to drive with more than adequate performance/ road holding. The steering is very responsive, brakes good, but gear change is notchy at times. Rear is very comfortable, but front leg room disappoints. All of this, like other Mazda's is spoilt by excessive wind/ road noise. Standard low profile tyres mean a raw, but acceptable ride and more noise!

The only thing it lacks are etched windows and an alarm that sounds if glass is broken (interior movement), but it has everything else.

thank u all for ur time and contributions
God bless you.
