have you made your decision on the Mazda2 or are there any other cars that take your fancy? Hows the hire car, would you fancy one of those?
Still wavering on the Mazda, purely because of the extra £500 or so for less equipment, but better fuel economy and reliability. There’s not much else within a reasonable price apart from the two ŠKODAs but manuals in stock are as rare as hens teeth or dealers don’t want to give them to Motability customers. The hire car is a fantastic Cupra Leon 1.5 V2 which is available on the scheme but not for Under 25s as it’s got 150BHP and even if I could drive it, it’s £3,695 as an AP. They do the Seat Leon version for U25 but it’s £2,000+ for one with a decent spec.
