Hi I’m looking to buy a 2010-12 Mazda Axela not sure what size motor 1.5 or a 2.0 some have Istop is there any issues with either of these motors and is there anything I should look out for cheers.

Hi there,
We haven't received any negative feedback from these models. Engine size could make a difference to what you would be using the vehicle for. A 1.5 might be a little under powered if you are wanting to load the vehicle up and drive out of town on trips, but great as a round town commute. As the Axela is an import, servicing and how it has been treated is very important, also under body rust is something to look out for.

Thanks for your help
