No — the Mazda Premacy sold in the UK was a front-wheel-drive only MPV throughout its production run, so it never came with a transfer box, which is a component found only on four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles. If you are searching for a transfer box for a Premacy, it is likely you have either the wrong part name or the wrong vehicle. You may be thinking of a different Mazda model that did offer 4WD, such as certain variants of the Mazda 626 estate or the Mazda CX-series SUVs.
It is quite possible the garage is referring to a different component, since no Premacy variant sold in the UK was fitted with a transfer box. On a front-wheel-drive vehicle, a mechanic might loosely use similar-sounding terminology when referring to the gearbox, differential, or driveshaft assembly. It is worth going back to the garage and asking them to clarify exactly which part they mean and whether they can give you the part number, as that will make finding the correct used part much easier through a breaker.
To the best of available knowledge, the Mazda Premacy was not offered in a four-wheel-drive configuration in the UK market, meaning no UK-spec Premacy would have come with a transfer box as standard. Some markets occasionally received different drivetrain options on MPV models of this era, but UK buyers should not assume a transfer box will be present on any Premacy they source parts from. If you have a vehicle that appears to be a Premacy but came from Japan as a grey import, it is worth doing a full VIN check, as the specification may differ from the standard UK model.
For a front-wheel-drive Premacy, the drivetrain components you are most likely to need are the gearbox (manual or automatic depending on your variant), the driveshafts on the nearside or offside, the differential (which is integrated into the gearbox on front-wheel-drive cars), or CV joints and boots. When contacting a breaker, have your engine code ready — found on your V5C or via a VIN check — as this is the most important detail for matching gearbox and driveshaft parts correctly to your vehicle.
