Don't buy anything that is the Sport edition. It will invariably be as sporty as a fireplace.
It's a company car, so I am restricted a little with engine types and what my budget will allow. The sport editions generally look a bit nicer or are a better trim level, no intention of racing it. I've been verbally warned about the speeds my GPS tracker had reported back to HQ.
The mazda is the winner at the moment as it's full of gadgets, although I prefer the exterior of the volvo though. Basically gotta be really nice and comfy, I've done 85k in the last 2 years.
I've driven the Mazda Axela (as it's called over here) and it is a very nice car. so much so that I've even considered having one for my next car. The interior is ok but maybe a little cheap considering the price of the motor but defiantly a nice car to be in as well as drive.
The interior actually looked really nice when I looked at it, certainly nicer than my Golf. Strangely they are actually very cheap compared to similar types of cars in the UK, I'd be looking at another 10K to get most other rivals with the same spec and half of them don't looks as funky.
I'd considered a Seat Leon too, go for the 1.8 petrol DSG. That will be more fun to drive but is a bit plain and lacking in gadgetry.

Is the present promotion on Leon's only for retail sales? One of the guys at work bought a new Leon and they are chucking in full LED lights, DAB and sat nav.
I agree the Leon's interior isn't fancy but it's well screwed together and I'm a big fan of the DSG box.
I guess it would be classed as a hot hatchback in the uk. Couldn't have gone for anything bigger as wife was giving me aggro.
Anyone got something similar?
