We must thank our loyal customers for maintaining Mazda’s position as their brand of choice – Mazda tops the sales charts nationally and is even stronger in our local area – in fact Hornsby Mazda has achieved a new milestone – now the 5th largest Mazda Dealer in Australia!! We are delighted to announce the arrival of the latest generation Mazda CX-9 seven seat People Mover including the introduction of the highly anticipated 2WD variant – the same great drive and equipment package at a substantially lower price!! We would like to share the meaning of the Japanese word “Takumi” – the term used for outstanding craftsmen – please read on for an explanation and how Mazda embraces the philosophy. I must thank our Service Customers who have endured our temporary Service facility – I am sure you are all looking forward to our imminent new facility as much as we are…Our Service Team has a few Winter vehicle maintenance tips to share!! One of our great strengths is the tenure, skill and “Mazda” specific knowledge of our people – we would like to publicly recognise recent awards Mazda Australia has presented to our team.

| Mazda CX-9 2WD | ||||||||||||
 Mazda has just released a minor update on the sophisticated Mazda CX-9 range – most notable is the introduction of the 2WD variant at a substantial saving compared with the AWD range.We sent Christian Fischer, one of long serving team members out for a drive to get his first impressions. The report back was excellent – Christian rated the car highly with little or no difference to the AWD models - the vehicle possibly felt a little more nimble and had quicker initial acceleration thanks to losing close to 100 kilograms of weight.
The Mazda CX-9 range now includes three 2WD variants (Classic, Luxury and Luxury Sat Nav) and three AWD variants (Luxury, Luxury Sat Nav and the range topping Grand Touring). Our first shipment of Mazda CX-9 2WD has arrived and is ready for your Test Drive – click here to arrange a time. |

| Takumi – Outstanding Craftsmen | ||||||||||||
 In Japan outstanding craftsmen are known as “Takumi.”To reach this level, they must hone their skill over time by closely observing a master.In a way this learning never ends – they always aim for a higher level, to produce something truly exceptional. The superb skill of “Takumi” is embodied by Japanese sword makers & calligraphers.
Guided by Tradition, their work is exacting, timeless and beautiful.Mazda Knows it is the skill of their people that allows them to reach the very highest standards – so their engineers are fostered in one-on-one training for two years.That way each Mazda is crafted with quality you can appreciate for years to come. |

| Winter Motoring Tips | ||||||||||||
 Now that we are right in the middle of winter, most people start thinking about the coolant in their radiator, especially if you are going to the snow.Every new Mazda since 2008 comes with long life coolant which lasts 4 years or 80,000 km, prior to that the life span was 2 years 40,000 km.Before travelling anywhere, let alone the snow you should always do a quick check under the bonnet looking for any signs of fluid leaks and check your fluid levels.
If your coolant needs topping up only use water, coolant is concentrated and adding extra coolant upsets the mix and can do harm. Customers always jump straight for the coolant bottle when looking to top up, but different types of coolant cannot be mixed, if two different types are mixed it can form a jelly inside the radiator and the cooling process stops. |
