Someone a couple of days ago mentioned that they had ordered one with several options. I do not see any real options on line you can order. Please list the options you mentioned. Regards

I don't really see anything other than selecting the grade, then colour options etc.

Five trim levels are available: SE, SE Nav, SE-L, SE-L Nav and Sport Nav.

Entry-level SE trim comes with 16in alloys and heated and electric folding wing mirrors. SE-L adds rear privacy glass, front LED fog lights, heated seats, automatic wipers and a rear parking sensors.

Range-topping Sport Nav comes with LED headlights, LED rear lights, 18in alloys and chrome door sills. It also adds an upgraded Bose stereo, keyless entry, a reversing camera and a head-up display.

The shared components with the 2 also allow Mazda to fit the CX-3 with that car's latest safety equipment. Blind spot monitoring is offered, along with city emergency braking and a lane departure warning system.

The interior features a 7.0in colour touchscreen, DAB radio, Bluetooth and steering wheel-mounted controls.

The 60:40 split folding rear seats can tumble forward to increase the load capacity in the 350-litre boot.

Hi Rob, I have ordered the 2.0 Sport Nav AWD manual in ceramic. Was originally going to go for the stone leather but I was told I would have to wait until around mid Aug for that but there was one with black interior available for mid Jul delivery. Also, on reflection, I thought the light colour might not stand up to a hard life with a teenager!

Unlike many rivals, the CX-3 is available with two and four-wheel drive transmission options. The former promises impressive efficiency, while the latter gives the Mazda a dash of off-road ability and lots of all-weather security. I think the AWD option is a good choice.
