This car is a tardis, small from outside big from imside. Easy to drive and live with. Good on fuel, mine is a desel 1.4 tdci (ford emgine). My first impressions:

1 a bit noisy om idle, clattery

2 looks very nice

3 nice ride and handling

4 wide opening doors and easy too access

5 extremely comfortable, even for 5 adults

bad bits

1 eats front tyres

2 basic models look horrible with low spec

3 a bit noisey on idle, soumds like a metallic sound

summary

buy a top spec model, such as capella which comes with alloya, 4 x electric windows, Try to get parts from a ford dealer, as its the same car as fiesta fusion, which are a lot cheaper than mazda dealership

Overall a great car, looks good, nice to drive, mazda re;iability, you cant go wrong
