mazda 626 reviews by year of make: 1996 1999 2000 2002 Read all reviews
For many, their image of Mazda is associated with the Mazda 626. This large family car became symbolic with the 1980s, having been introduced to the market in 1979. The first Mazda 626 featured was a front engine rear-wheel drive compact and had little to differentiate it from the Mazda Capella, on which it was based. The 1983 redesign however, took the Mazda 626 to new heights using the GC Platform and the new look scooped numerous awards. Further reinventions of the Mazda 626 took place in 1988, 1993 and 1998 – the car’s production culminated in 2002.

This is the third 626 that my wife and I have owned. I gave in my company car and converted the second 1996 car to run on LPG. It did 220k before the LPG packed up and it went to auction. My current 626 is an SE Sport, one of the last manufactured in 2002. It is a 5 speed manual with cruise control, traction control and climate control. I bought is for £4400 in 2006 with 29,000 on the clock. It has now done 106k without missing a beat. Keep them serviced properly and they will never let you down. No great street cred - but so what!
