The MAZDA 6 (2008-10) 5DR ESTATE 2.0 D DPF 140 SL is a roomy five-door family estate from Mazda’s mid-size range. It offers more luggage space and practicality than a saloon, while remaining easier to park and live with than a large SUV. In the UK used-car market, it suits buyers wanting useful load space without moving to a van-like vehicle. Mycarcheck.com records 105 look-ups covering 49 distinct VINs, a useful sample of real-world interest. The checks show an average recorded mileage of 137,000 miles and annual use of 7,000 miles; the average private-sale valuation is £1,700. Cars averaged just over five previous keepers, so condition and service history deserve careful attention when comparing examples. The 2.0-litre diesel estate is well suited to families, commuters and active households carrying luggage or equipment. Against rivals such as the Ford Mondeo estate, its appeal is straightforward practicality and comfortable everyday versatility and value.
