Re: Low washer fluid warning light

I got caught out by this on a motorway. All my previous cars had a warning light. It didn't occur to me that the Mazda didn't have one. A bit mean to save a few pennies on the list price.

Re: Rear ended today!!! GRRRR!!!!!

Sorry to hear that Andy. It is such a clean car as I remember when you visited me.
Good luck with getting it sorted.
I also have received a cold call from accident chaser brigade. I said "which one are you refering to, I have had four this week".

Re: Super cardesign

Hi HouseSpider, I miss the driving dynamics and the tight feel it had on the road. Mazda definitely got it right. If only they made one with a more vertical back window I would have stayed with Mazda. Sadly at the moment they don't. The Citroen C5 Aircross is a different motor altogether, it has the...
