Mazda 2 (2007 - 2015) 1.5 Sport 5d Owner Review

1.5 Sport 5d
Mazda 2 (2007-)

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

In their own words

Great all round car. The suspension is surprisingly stiff for such a small car, but that makes its components last longer. I have owned mine for just about a month, but being an automobile consultant and a seasoned mechanic, I know what car can survive all the miles and this one surely will. It puts a smile on my face each time. Get the 1.5 sport as it's very nippy. It's got a heavy steering to compensate for the lightness of the car.

How reliable do you find the car?

I had a leaking exhaust which I took to several mechanics who hadn't the time to fix it. I was an automobile consultant and mechanic back in my country so I popped to Halfords and got their very efficient exhaust parts glue for 4 pounds and fixed it myself.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

It's great when u have a little car that is dead easy to park, yet very adequate on the motorway with loads of toys like rain sensing wipers, cruise control, electronic folding mirrors, heated mirrors, very nice audio system etc.
