Talking How Easy is Parking Mazda 2 in UK car parks?

OK, silly question - I'm thinking of buying a 2019 Mazda 2. I've just turned 70 and had a teeny tiny Nissan Micra for many years and I'm not the most confident of drivers!. My silly question is do you Mazda 2 owners in the UK, with our tight car parking spaces in supermarkets and the like find it easy to judge how close your front wings are getting to cars either side of the space you're aiming for? Compared to a Micra the 2's bonnet looks so much deeper, the distance from your eyeline to front bumper very different and I prefer not to reverse in, even though my potential new car has sensors. Many thanks and if you're glad you didn't buy a Toyota Yaris, I'd also like to hear from you too! Thanks!

Hi, personally I am 78 and do not have a problem parking the mazda2 it a fairly small and nimble car but only you can make the decision.

That's very helpful, thank you so much. A '2' is not much wider than my Micra so should be fine. They really are a good looking motor.
