1. This version of the 6 is larger than the car it replaced but it's actually lighter. The light-weight loss gives it a sporty edge that makes it nimble and grippy in the bends.
2. The large tailgate gives great access to the big boot, and for even bigger loads you can drop the split folding rear seats to create a large load space.
3. All models come with stability control and six airbags.
4. Servicing costs are typical for this class of car, but Mazda's reliability record means bills should be kept to a minimum.
5. The older 2.0-litre diesel engine can suffer with lubrication problems, where fuel finds its way into the oil system.
