The MAZDA 2 (2003-07) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 D 68 TS2 is a small, five-door diesel hatchback designed for easy everyday motoring. In the UK market it sits among affordable superminis: more compact and city-friendly than a family hatchback, while its rear doors and useful cabin make it practical for passengers and shopping. The mycarcheck.com picture is based on 15 look-ups covering 15 distinct cars, a useful snapshot rather than a large sample. These checks show an average private-sale valuation of £800, average recorded mileage of 96,000 miles and around 4,000 miles driven annually; cars had an average of 3.6 previous keepers. This suggests many examples may now be inexpensive, higher-mileage used choices, so check each car’s history and condition carefully. The 1.4 diesel’s low-key character and economical focus suit commuters, first-time buyers and small households seeking simple transport. Against rivals such as the Ford Fiesta, it offers value for everyday ownership.
