Well my Mazda 2 has finally arrived and it's absolutely wicked!!! It's only my second car and its my first new car. Its been one hell of an experience switching from my old Micra to this new era machine. Its so much smoother, quieter and comfortable. Everything is more refined!
It comes with 3yr warranty and 3yr breakdown cover. Even though I've had an accident the insurance actually works out about the same since I'm now 25 and the car has a pretty high NCAP rating.
The Mazda 2 is the 2008 car of the year too.
Here's some pics:


Its so quiet that when I stalled it reversing out of my drive I didn't realise and was mightilly confused that the accelerator didn't work!!
Some neat features::
- It has an 'engine cold' light which tells you he engine is too cold to go razzing it. It goes off once the engine has reached a certain temp (about 2-5mins driving).
- Light dimmer for the dashboard instruments.
- MP3 compatible multi-CD changer.
- Auxiliary-in socket to plug mp3 player directly in.
- Electric boot lock. Press a button to open.
- Remote door locks - the range on this is insane!! I managed to unlock my car from Tesco checkouts.
- LCD fuel guage.
- Airbags.
- The car manual comes in a suede wallet (small things
) - Electric door mirrors!!!
- Power steering!!
I'll put up more pics soon. Especially of the instrument panel.
