The MAZDA 5 (2008-10) 5DR MPV 2.0 D DPF 110 TS2 is a compact five-door, seven-seat MPV: taller and more practical than a hatchback, but easier to manage than a large people carrier. Its sliding rear doors make access handy in tight parking spaces, helping it stand out among used family cars such as the Ford C-Max and Vauxhall Zafira. Mycarcheck.com recorded 244 look-ups covering 100 different VINs, a useful-sized snapshot of cars shoppers have researched. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,300 and average recorded mileage of 114,000 miles; typical annual mileage is 8,000, while cars have had about four previous keepers. These figures describe the checked examples, not a guaranteed price or condition. The 2.0-litre diesel particularly suits family journeys and regular longer commutes, with useful flexibility for passengers and luggage. Consider it if practicality matters more than sporty handling, and check its history and condition before buying.
