I purchased the petrol version recently due to worries about the diesel engine. I don't think Mazda are alone in having problems. Not yet towed with it but I agree its a complete rip-off regarding the dealership issues and must be very worrying for any diesel owners waiting for the expected to...

They're very close to me although I've never had any work done by them, although I know people who have and been more than happy. They are or used to be Avondale dealers so should know what they're doing. They've always struck me as expensive - but as its an insurance job you won't have to worry. C

How much would you want for the wheel?... and more importantly -where abouts in the country are you? :-) C

Phheew...! Thanks Dougie. TBH I've not really read anything bad about the petrols. I've had a Peugeot diesel for the last 6 years and its nice to drive a lively petrol again.Did you have the towbar fitted as supplied or did you have it fitted yourself? Craig

Thanks for your replies. I'm in posession of it now so its fingers crossed. I think I'll stay away from internet reviews after reading 'me's' link above re Mondeos!! If you've got a Mondeo - don't read it. Regards Craig

Thanks Ray. I have been looking at changing my car for the last 2 years and gone around in circles in the process. I originally looked at the Mondeo diesel but was put off by a couple of mechanics and internet reviews with problems with injectors, clutches and rear suspension failures. These...

Presume this is the one behind the pub. I've not been personally as it doesn't have a toilet block.But I know someone who goes regularly and they really enjoy it.Lots going on in the marina and on the Trent which flows right by the village. Also good for visiting nearby Lincoln, Sundown...

Hi Craig Some months ago I changed my nickname as my name is craig and I noticed another Craig posting (you?).Have you noticed another posting recently? C

Hello Mike We visited Incleborough last Spring bank for a week.We have two kids and the site was full as expected. Its very well laid out and regularly wins the C.C.site of the year. Some areas on the grass are quite sloping but overall its very pretty with some pitches in trees and small...

Hi Jo-anne We stayed at Treamble for 2 weeks last August.The weather was hot and the site was full, but it isn't a cramped site. Its basically 3 or 4 fields and all the pitches are around the outside, so you nearly always overlook open space. There's only one toilet block, which can be a hike...
