Hello and welcome.
What makes you think that? Was it a private sale?
Have you a video to show us?

As Richie says from above as Mazda would charge way over £1000, even buying the parts yourself and a side at garage will cost you a good few hundred.
Upload the video to YouTube and send the link here, do a stone cold start, filming it from in the engine bay, on the drivers side.

Drove down to Milton Keynes today n told them they had a look and agreed the chain needs replacing as I bought it from Toyota they said they can't fix it so they are now sending it to mazda to fix with a minimum £1000 bill they wasn't happy but there problem not mine

Remember that doing just the chain is no good, theres the vvt, tensioner, guides and a few other bits that need doing as spammy mentioned above
