1990 Mazda 626 Hatch (Don't know) 2.2i 4 Cylinder
Summary:
Great, reliable all-round car
Faults:
Cracked valve stem seal when I got it (broken thermostat), which lead to low oil which then lead to engine rebuild!
Clutch 3/4 gone, replaced.
New driveshaft seals.
New brake pads in front at 210000.
Apart from that, it's fine!
General Comments:
It is quite powerful for a car of this class. Lots of torque down low, but when you get to ~4500, the shows about over! Not too bad really.
Suspensions OK, but body roll is a bit scary sometimes.:)
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
