    Advantages Advantages sporty look, great features, comfortable, low road tax,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages windows, high speed acceleration, no standard alarm

    I bought my Mazda 323F 1.5GXi(1998 P reg) six months ago and can honestly say it is the best car I have had so far(it's my 5th). The reason for me initially choosing this make/model was partly due to word of mouth(my dad has bought mazda's for last 25 years and a friend at work has exact same model) and due to it having quite a sporty look about it. The additional features of this model are quite comprehensive: Driver/passenger airbags Power assisted steering Air conditioning Electric sunroof Immobilizer system Central locking Electric mirrors Electric windows Front fog lights Head light ... more

    Advantages Advantages reliable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages a little pricey

    Mazda cars may not be the cheapest around but, if you are looking for a new car, always include them on your list for a test drive. I say this because I feel they are a good car to use as a measure. You will not necessarily be presented with the most up-to-date design but the look will be good enough. Don't expect to find something completely different in the 'fixtures and fittings' line but most, if not all, things you will want will be there. So what do you get? A goodish looking car, well designed and robust, good specifications, comfortable interior, and reliability. In addition you will ... more

    Advantages Advantages Reliability Control Comfort Economy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Cost of repairs if needed

    I chose Mazda because of the reputation for reliability, and I have not been disappointed. The 323 has a comfortable sporty feel, excelent handling, control and road holding. Inside there is the feeling of space and safety with a smooth ride. The 1.5 engine gives a good balance of power and economy. Overtaking, acceleration and agility are made easy, while the engine is not so big that your burning a hole in your pocket. Regarding spair parts, as with all Japanese makes they are generally more expensive. This said, I have found that there are fewer repairs that are needed and that the quality ... more

    Advantages Advantages sporty looks and reliability

    Disadvantages Disadvantages electrical problems like brake lights

    I bought my P reg Mazda 323 Innsbruck in April 2000 and have had it for seven years now and have not been disappointed. I can honestly say that it is RELIABLE! I wanted a Japanese car when I bought this one as I knew that they were reliable, but frankly some of them seemed 'fuddy duddy' (Honda) or boring (Nissan). When I saw this lovely, sporty hatchback it was love at first sight... Anyway, seven years have gone by and I can report that apart from the usual tyres and exhausts, nothing has gone wrong. I've had seven years of happy motoring, and despite feeling that I should perhaps replace my ... more

    Advantages Advantages good value, excellent drive, reliable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages smaller than other family cars

    Mazda has now been my parent’s choice of car manufacturer for a long 12 years. Having just donated their 323 to me in favour of an upgrade, I am so proud of my new (if actually slightly old) car. It has served my parents well and this is clear from its age. It has only had to have one major repair when the exhaust was replaced but for a 12 year old car I think this shows you just how reliable it is. The car is 5 door and my particular one is a super sexy red. The car is not too large nor too small and definitely feels smaller on the inside than it appears from outside. It would definitely make ... more
