Mazda6 Adds New Title To Its Growing List Of Awards
The Mazda6 has added another prestigious title to its growing list of awards, the Maxol/UMWA Northern Irish Car of the Year 2003.
The Mazda6 was voted for by the panel of journalists from the Ulster Motoring Writers Association beating off competition from Citroën, Lexus and Honda to take the title. It also took the Family Car category, beating the Saab 9-3 into second place.
The panel of judges praised the Mazda for its driving experience, a range of spirited engines and fine chassis as well as Mazda itself for the dramatic turn around in fortunes over the last 18 months.
