2011 Mazda 5 Sport 2.0 petrol from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Reliable and spacious

Faults:

Not a single fault!

General Comments:

Big people carrier MPV from Mazda. Rare and underrated on our UK roads.

Easily better than other MPVs out there, this Mazda has been super reliable for me the last couple of years, despite being over a decade old and approaching 100K miles.

Not bad to drive for a family vehicle. 2.0 petrol engine is fast enough but only does 35 mpg. More reliable than the diesel unit in this car however.

Try one - much better than the typical French offerings from Renault and Citroën, I feel this Mazda 5 is very underrated.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
