Mazda CX60 3.3 diesel

[LightweightLouisDanvers]

Anybody driving one of these?
Wasn't even aware they made a straight six diesel.
Seems to have pretty decent power and economy and reasonably priced used.
Thinking it would make a brilliant tow car and in Soul Red metallic looks fabulous.
Not so keen on the MHEV side of it but if it was reliable it seems like quite an enticing car?

2.5 ton max tow weight vs 3.5T for disco or Touareg

Bouncy / unsettled ride is the biggest issue with the cx60

Wouldn't have a modern Discovery, would spend more time broken and there's something I can't put my finger on that I'm not fussed about the Toureag. Strange because we had a Tiguan that was a great car.

Suspect that heavy depreciation is going to continue - large engine diesel, obscure model, sub-premium brand. About as desirable as the clap.

Plus oddly unsettled and bouncy ride….
