Love my new car
« on: December 29, 2016, 10:05:16 pm »
Hi everyone

Just bought a 2009 Mazda 6 after years of Toyota Avensis...

So far all good apart from my fat fingers changing the bulb in the boot.... read the forums and know what I broke lol....

Got a 300 mile drive in the morning and done this journey 100's of times but I am excited for a change...   won't bore you any more

Welcome to the forum. Let us know what your impressions are after your shake down drive :)
Look at life through the windscreen, not the rearview mirror.

Well that's the first good run out 340 miles and within the first 50 I found out that the Mazda has a lot more grunt than the Toyota oh it's nice been able to overtake on a hill... never done that going up it for a long time.

Must say the Mazda is a more pleasant place to be and loved it all. Oh better say 1 gripe I do have is a funny rattle sounding noise coming through the steering that needs investigating but only on a rough road surface..

All in all really pleased with the car and can't wait for my next trip....

Good night all
