Hi there.

I am looking at getting a Mazda 3 mps. The problem is i have never actually seen one on the road, I don't know anyone who has one and there are none at any garages near me.

Is there enough room in the back of the car for 2 kids under 2? And how big is the boot?

If anyone is in the kings Lynn area, Norfolk, and would like to let me have a look around the car and take me for a spin it would be much appreciated!!!

Hello and welcome,I worked down at British sugar years ago,had a great time down your neck of the woods.

There is more than enough room for your kids and the boot is excellent.

i comfortably fit 3 adults in the back no probs

I think it's roomy and rather deceptive from the outside, particularly if you've only seen one in pictures or videos.

The boot is actually a good bit bigger than I thought before going to view my one so absolutely no complaints from me in any department.

However beware - if you do get a run in one, you WILL want to buy one, so be prepared! :P

Hello and welcome along, if want loads of room then consider the 6? But the 3 is still plenty roomy.

I'm in King's Lynn. I've got a 6 and you're more than welcome to have a ride in it before you talk yourself into a 3. :-)

to the forum, hope you find the car you are after, are you looking for a mk1 or mk 2?

Im after a mk1 ideally. Not too bothered about the colour but preferably not silver. From research into them they are great value for money.

I would love to have a look round the 6. The reason I was edging towards the 3 is there doesn't seem to be many 6's for sale!!! And my missus thinks it is too long!!!

Welcome to the forum and like others have said there is plenty of room

They are good value to buy, don't forget though they are a performance car so running costs are quite high.

Worth every penny though

I am prepared for the costs. 24 so insurance is quite cheap, and last 2 cars were Evo 5 and seat Leon cupra r mk1. I just need more room in the back for another baby seat whereas in my Leon I can't get a seat behind the drivers seat when I'm in.
It's the tax costs which are a shocker!!

That's where the mk2 comes in then as its in a lower tax bracket.

I've said this before and I shall bore you all again Tax is NOT a shocker its a few extra quid a month and I really dont see the arguement to buy a different car because of the tax.

Petrol will be the biggest expense, if used a lot, and then when things go wrong e.g look at the VVT failure costs etc. CV joint on the 3 cost me over £400 as you have to buy the whole shaft, its things like this that make it expensive. BUT its a great car and if I hadn't been putting silly amounts of super unleaded in mine would happily still be running it
