Hi all


New to the forum and too Mazda's
I've had all sorts of cars in 30 years of driving.
Thought I would give Mazda a try.


Bought this 2012 1.6 petrol Mazda 3 back in December 2016.
26k on the clock one owner.
Nice looking motor.
Done 5k in it since December
Seems ok, everything where it should be
Some T*** cracked my rear bumper in a car park and bogged off within 24hrs of me picking it, so not a good start !


Only thing Im not pleased with (probably due to the fact ive had several 2lt diesels in the past) is the performance seems to be lacking unless you really wind it up.
And fuel consumption seems total pants.
Tried all sorts of driving styles.
My commute is on roads that run between 30mph and 60mph, so kinda standard driving conditions,
Fill the tank, with 50 quid, the trip computer says 511 miles, I get 358miles.
Cant get it any better no mater how I drive.
Abit disappointed with that.
But
