Mazda 3 questions

Unlike many ngs this group generally has more sensible posts than flames.

My wife has a 2002 MX5 and I have a 2004 Mazda 3 Sport (because the Ford
dealers are so bad in mid Essex, England that I wouldn't buy another Focus).

I have found other general Mazda ngs but they are pretty dormant. I have no
problem with the odd 6 or 3 post here.

I have a 2004 Mazda 3S, great car except for the weak air conditioning.
The AC in the Jettas are much stronger IMHO.. but my 2001 Jetta VR6 was
a piece of junk

We have a 2004 Mazda 3 Sport in the UK. Aircon seems OK.

We used to have a Focus and the aircon on that started failing within 2
years. The local Ford dealer (Dovercourt) tried to fix it but as usual
failed miserably. It was a little cool for a while and then gave up again.
Finally I got an independent guy out who tested it for leaks and pressurised
it properly. Then it was fine.

Seconded.

This is a good forum with lots of traffic. It has plenty of mileage
discussions.

BTW, 26/28 Mazda3 s.

I'd look at the 6 before buying a loaded Mazda3.
