Mazda MPV-still a good buy?

**tim4h92** · February 11th, 2010 12:01 PM

Hello everyone,

ok pa ba ang MPV, yung local version? I'm actually thinking between this and the Mitsu spacewagon. Hindi ba sirain, and madali ba parts? Used to own a 97 familia before and madami naman parts, not so sure lang though about the MPV, kaya I'm considering also the Spacewagon since madali naman parts, iyun nga lang gas, while the MPV's diesel. OK din naman ba fuel consumption niya?

Thanks in advance!

Up ko lang ito

Is there any mazda MPV discussions here? any MPV users and feedbacks on parts availability , quality and fuel consumption?

thanks!

if it's a converted one, it's not a good buy. buy the local version. if not satisfied with the 2nd row captain seats, a bench type is available.

I may say yes.

.... just get a unit which is still in good condition.

About the bench type seats, is there a particular yr model that has this? Mas kailangan ko kasi bench type rather then the captain's seats which seats less

yung local release na 96~98 MPV eh captain's seats lang ang nakita ko nung nagka-canvass pa ako.
meron ako nakita na bench type sa surplus 96~98 MPV.

ah ok, target ko pa naman sana local na with bench type. Pwede kaya pa salpakan ng bench type yung local with orig Captain seats?

pwede salpakan yan. would be better kung makahanap ka ng surplus bench type intended for MPV. at least, sakto ang mounting nun.

all right, thanks sir

trip na trip ko talaga porma ng mpv, plus kakaiba ka, wala masyado kapareho sa kalye, lalo na kung local

pero sabi naman ng iba eh mahirap parts. afaik same engine lang naman sila ng Ranger.

yes sir, pareho yan nung engine ng 1st gen. ranger/everest.

hindi rin kasi ganun karami ang local 96~98 MPV at tapos nag pull out pa ang mazda kaya nawalan ng support. Kaya siguro ito ang naging impression starting from that time

mula nung mabili ko yung MPV eh wala pa naman ako na encounter na parts na hindi mabili o mahanap. dami na rin surplus parts sa banawe kahit na exterior panels meron na.

Nag palit na rin ako ng front wind shield kasi eh natamaan ng bato. Available naman sa Aguila Glass.
