i have been thinking for a while now about getting another car to drive to work in and drive long distances in, im after something abit bigger than the si so i have been looking into astras, focus's, 306's etc but the car which has really caught my eye is the mazda 323 sport, the equiptment in them is amazeing, pretty much fully kitted out and i think out of all the cars i have seen they look the nicest aswell. i was just wondering if anyone could give me any info on what the car is actually like, driveability, practicality etc and if it would be a good choice to go for, they seem to be going for around £2.500-£3.000 on 03-53 plates.

its this model


any comments welcome

not the most inspiring figures. rubbish mpg for a new car.

It's seen as more of a family car, You say you want something bigger and for long distances so does something like a Focus not appeal to you? some cracking tdi's about.

Get one cheap and use that as daily drive instead of wasting loads on a new car? Or you might as well get rid of fiesta?
