I've had several new mazda's in the past 10 years and all have been great cars.

The ADR combined figure for the 6 Diesel is acutally 5.9L/100km and not 6.9. Strangely though figures bandied around so far for the 3 diesel state the same figue, so it will be interesting to see once it has finally done the ADR test. Then again the 3 isn't much smaller/lighter than the 6. :-) I don’t know where the fuel economy figures were sourced from, but the economy stated for the 6 sure isn’t the offical ADR81/01 figures.
