It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
How big it is
Being a car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
A longer test drive
Rent the Mazda5 for a week and see how it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Drive the Mazda5 on your commute before you commit to it.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
