First 3 years replaced 8 tyres (2 full sets !!!) With only 45,000 miles on the clock had to replace front discs then the Shock absorbers failed - then had to have them replaced 3 months later as the replacement failed. Then the DPF failed - replaced at local garage as Mazda wanted £2500. Then blue smoke started appearing from exhaust - which was either Turbo starting to fail or valve stem seals - either was was going to cost between £1000 and £3000 to put back on the road. Once DPF was replaced, was told that I needed to "open her up on the motorway" every now and then - so much for fuel economy and the environment.
