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.

Mazda 626 SE 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!

Mazda 626 1996

This car is amazing. It goes as well today as the day I bought it five years ago. It’s smooth, incredibly comfortable. It’s used every day in heavy London traffic, plus many long journeys to Wales, and also France. It’s done 100,000 miles. Uses virtually no oil. Can it go on forever?!

Mazda 626 1996

I acquired The Mazda 626 Automatic 2.0 i Executive in 1998. It was an ex-company car. It had done 85,000 miles at that time. It has all the usual refinements including cruise control which seemed a bit surreal when used, in that it would change gear if it dropped below a certain rev. The car now has done 180,000 miles with no major repairs, goes through the MOT with minimal expense - ie light bulbs, tyre etc... The engine goes from one service to the next without requiring oil, amazing. This car is definitely the best car I have ever had and I will be loath to get rid of it finally.

Mazda 626 Saloon 2.0 GXi 4dr

Great family car. Bought mine 3 years ago on a 51 plate and a reasonable amount of milage. It’s taken a fair battering and just keeps on going. Very reliable and inexpensive to run. The only down side is its looks - very boring. Good car if you can get your hands on one in good condition.
