Goes in this coming Tuesday 16th October 2018. It's been an really enjoyable 3 years since new. Have loved it and definitely had some fun. It is to become a 'keeper'.
22,700 miles on original Toyo's (still going strong).
Warranty expires 30th Oct.
Service Quote: £217.54 + £39.00 MOT.
Garage is also lubricating dried out noisy wing mirror fold-in mechanism, checking clutch (not biting properly when pulling away from stop on steep gradients), plus software update [recommended by other forum members].
Just to say at this stage, how immensely helpful you've all been on the forum . . . . much appreciated.
Dealer repeatedly insist differention between clolours on soul red plastic bumpers and rest of car is normal for 2015 models - but it's really very noticeable now. Guess we'll have to live with it.
Will promise to keep you all posted after this Tuesday.
Wish us luck.

No MJC1216, having weighed up all the pro's and cons, we've finally decided that Mazda's build quality, their reputation and parts longevity outway the need to purchase an extended warranty*. If something major went wrong (such as a con rod failure), like all reputable manufacturers, Mazda would pay for it to be rectified anyway. We also have the manual petrol - so no diesel particulate filter issues or expensive auto box failures to worry about. It's likely that any parts that may need replacing will be down to general wear and tear - meaning that they would not be covered under warranty anyway. Bodywork paint and interior is already covered for life with Autoglym 'Lifeshine' and the necessary warranty work needed for any major faults (such as air con condenser) have already been carried out.
* If, however, we had been foolish enough to have bought a Renault Capture, Nissan Joke or an ugly Peugeot with quilted sleeping bags glued along the doors, then we would have needed an extended warranty!
