Mazda CX-5 (2012 - 2017) 2.2d SE-L Lux Nav 5d Owner Review

2.2d SE-L Lux Nav 5d
Mazda 2016 CX-5

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Got this to replace my 2016 Renault Kadjar, which was a fantastic car, but this Mazda is a step up. Size wise its so much bigger, higher up and it has much more useable space. It's as comfortable (if not a bit more comfy) as the Renault was. My only real concern with the car at the moment is the frankly awful infotainment system on the older Mazda's (similar to the Nissan system but takes approx 5-7 minutes to bring up the ability to play bluetooth music and even then its not a good system), and the 39-40mpg round town which is far below what i was expecting from it (but still good for a 2.2 though)
Its so quick and repsonsive which is a bonus for such a big car and the steering is positive.
Overall a good car, i have no doubt that it will have issues coming considering its mileage but what car has never had any issues?

How reliable do you find the car?

Had a minor fault which required a new MAP Sensor within 2 days of buying it, but since it was replaced it's been faultless
