Re: What if there was no CX-3 - 2nd Choice?

That left the CX-3. A good car but far from perfect. With a quieter and more forgiving ride it could be so much better. One of the true assets of the CX-3 is its ride/handling IMO for a compact SUV (16" alloys here), road noise is a Mazda issue but well known and never a deal breaker, I've dri...

Re: Sport Nav alloy wheels?

What if you have had the Superguard protection on the car, i guess that is the same thing and should offer the same protection? Simon. Personally, I'd be wary of using TFR on your car, if the Supagard has not been applied correctly it will easily strip it. Also a poor quality TFR will strip Supagar...
