Of course the guy disappeared. As soon as he donned the helmet, his face was invisible to those around him

Tdot lol, I need to listen to more of Kardinal Offishall`s music  

Thanks Fhemmmy for the reply. Points 1 and 3 are good reasons to be concerned.

Forgive the late reply Siga, was caught up in a few things. Where exactly would Tdot be?

Thank you inspired_m for the VIN check. You're too kind.

Thank you.

Thanks again Siga.

Uof M is a fine institution. Your brother is getting a quality education.

Per the topic, I was just looking at JD powers' dependability ranking and the Mazda3 is pretty poor on the 'powertrain dependability'. So I guess at the end of the day, I should hold out for a few more months to save enough for a civic.


_{On a side note, why does the site change individual [size=15pt]uu[/size][/i]s to [i][size=15pt]You[/size]?}

Thank You Siga and Promise72 for the replies.

With regard to usage, I intend to use it for a duration of four years before selling it off. I have been looking at the 05 Mazda 3s so in four years time, it would have been on the road for about seven years. Given that the average yearly mileage for a car is 20,000 km, it would have amassed a total mileage of 140,000 km +/- 20,000 when I'm done with it. So is the resale value for mazdas so ridiculous that a seven year old mazda would sell less than a seven year old car in the same class such as a toyota corolla?

Winnipeg's currently behaving with the weather. In fact on last check, it was a balmy 22^oC

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.

Apart from your reason as to why Kalou was left to score, I say you are spot on with your comment

I now understand what the English had to go through recently. Nigeria is fast becoming Africa's English national team

I think the real question is this; since airline companies know that the use of mobile devices inteferes with navigational instruments which could lead to disastrous consequences, why don`t they install jamming devices on all aircraft in their fleet (they could programme it in such a way that it becomes activated once the aircraft is ready for takeoff). This way, the safety of their pasengers is not compromised and it acts as a foolproof method against the few individuals who feel it`s within their right to cause others harm.
