Total 19 Mazda 626 owner reviews
Pros: Good for intelligent driver not longer than 195 cm, who follows traffic rules for 90% and for 110% runs at regular intervals and takes care of his car, so that it don't get chilled (only the best coolant in radiator) and overheated (oil always in level and timely changed, including filters) and on bad roads slowly, large puddles, above ankle should not be crossed.
If need to transfer washing machine or a couch or refrigerator - trunk lid like hippopotamus mouth.
Cons: Could be a bit, a little higher for Latvian roads. Could be a bit, a little economical in terms of fuel, it would be my ideal car.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Amazingly durable suspension. Spacious rack. The 2.0 engine was not so sluggish (115hp).
Cons: Sometimes it seemed to me that the car was cursed - from time to time filed anything - generator, starter and other electronics elements. Plus, the superstructure rusts like hell. If you are a student or have problems with money - don't be tempted by this car and its cheap price - don't buy this trash. Buy something else in this price category - such as the audi 80, ford mondeo, golf 3 and so on.
