Excellent value. How many more options can you fit as standard?

Reasonable. Much like a normal saloon.

On the road
Driving
Based upon 323 estate, bit more 'top heavy' and as long as you use those breaks, it corners fine.
Performance
Keep revs above 3000rpm and it shifts, although it's not a sportscar and you will suddenly see your fuel drop a significant amount!

Living with it
Reliability
Reasonable, although the non-warranty stuff will certainly go after 3 years.
Image
Discrete. Mistaken for the silver star when it first came out (haha).
Comfort
Reasonable, although I think the revised model has better seats.

Security
Criminals won't be able to take it anywere, however, they are free to throw a brick through the window and the premacy will stay silent... bad move Mazda.
Service
Typical dealer stuff... I hate them.
