Stylish, insightful and spirited – that is the manufacturer’s description of the Mazda6 and it’s difficult to disagree with the Mazda6 having finished as runner-up for European Car of the Year on its debut in 2003. In Japan, the Mazda6 is marketed as the Mazda Atenza, though the Mazda6 name is adopted throughout the rest of the world. There have been many different model shapes of the Mazda6 made available including a four-door, five-door, an estate and a sporty Mazda6 MPS. The popularity of the Mazda6 should not be underestimated – it sold one million units worldwide faster than any other previous Mazda.

Mazda 6 TS2 2007

One of the first of the new Mazda 6’s and both my wife and I loved the car as soon as we saw it. That continued until recently. We were impressed with the drive, economy, styling, comfort and overall feel of this excellent looking car.....and then.....SNOW !!! Yes, it warned us of impending slippery conditions, what it didnt tell us that it simply had no way of combatting them !!! The arse end was all over the place and on the slightest of incline, despite new tyres etc, etc.,it simply could not cope. Others on the hill were up up and away,and here was I, going sideways!! Luckily I guess we don’t regularly have winters and conditions like we have had the last 6 weeks!!!

Mazda 6 Katano 2007

Despite continual ingress of damp into the headlights I have been told by Mazda that this was quite normal and to keep my headlights on for at least 15 minutes daily! The boot was almost impossible to open as as lifting arms were obviously not strong enough for the weight of the aerofoil on Katano model. I waited some 3 months for Mazda to obtain stronger arms, which I think came from Japan. I find that after you purchase a new Mazda the dealership isn’t really interested in any complaints you have after that time. I find the clutch very fiery. I do not think I shall buy another Mazda.

Mazda 6 TS 2.0.Diesel 2007

We bought this car from new and after 12 weeks I took it back because the engine dipped at 60mph, was informed by the main dealer nothing was wrong! This car went back several times and again was told nothing wrong!! However in October 08 I was driving home and a great cloud of smoke flew out the exhaust, the engine was reving at 4000 and I had no gears, the DPF had gone on it, went into be mended it had also melted the computer system - over 6k worth of damage. Eventually they said it was covered on the warranty also got told "not another one"!! Mazda knew this was a fault but failed to tell us when buying it, also got told the dipping at 60 was a quirk of the car, I nearly smashed the guys face at the garage having paid 17,500k - was not impressed to hear it was a quirk, the customer service at Mazda is rubbish. I logged a complaint with them every time my car had an issue, this model has been recalled and eventually it will be recalled for the dipping as I know a lot of other people have experienced the same, also the oil level, why is it the only car whose oil level rises surely this is not right?? I will never ever buy another Mazda, which is a shame as the handling on this car is superb. I had to drive other models whilst ours was being fixed and they were big noisy tanks, we are currently looking to get rid of it before the warranty is up...

Mazda 6 2.OD TS 2007

I had a terrible time with my Mazda 6 in 2007, out of the 12 months in the year I was only able to actually drive it for 4 months. It also cost me aver £6,000 in repairs. The clutch and a cracked piston were just 2 of the problems that I faced with the car. I will never buy Mazda again, not only because of the car continually breaking down but also because of the extortionate prices of Mazda parts. My advice would be to avoid any Mazda cars like the plague.
