WE, the fairer sex, hoard endless items in our handbags on a daily basis - as many as 63 different objects, according to research by Kleenex. Other than the usual suspects, such as make-up and purses, the research discovered a few unusual objects in the handbag mix, like detachable car CD players and screwdrivers for repairing glasses.
Around 92% of the items aren't seen as being useful and of the 1,300 women surveyed, 57% admitted they only use one to five of those items. led flexible light strips The rest are 'just in case' items, like the torch I carry and the compass. Well you never know, do you? Women are nurturers by nature so like to be prepared, so manufacturers, please note, cars that women buy need to have lots of clever storage space. The Mazda 2 does. The gearstick is located on the dash, freeing up the space between the seats. Which leaves room for lots of open places of all different sizes which will easily accommodate the clutter.
However, the Sport version I road tested has such a stylish interior that you'll probably prefer to keep it tidy. The steering wheel has chrome spokes with useful buttons for audio, cruise and climate control. On the dash, above the five-speed gear box, is a circular designed audio system and simple-to-use climate control buttons. The fabric seats are supportive and comfortable.
To access the seats in the rear of the three door, the front ones move forward. I found the mechanism clumsy to operate and the back of the front seat doesn't return to its position, so I had to fiddle about to get it back into a comfortable position. I take my daughter shopping during the week and the combined weekly food bags of two households easily fitted into the spacious boot, which with seats folded down, will hold a maximum of 787 litres.
As a young 20-something, she really admired the exterior looks of the new Sport model led replacement bulbs which has a forward-thrusting appearance with a high, curvy rear end. The 1.5-litre engine I road tested doesn't disappoint the anticipation driven by its sporty looks. Acceleration is rapid, from 0-62mph in 10.4 seconds, and even comes with a sporty note. I did find the clutch a little sensitive and the car stalled on a couple of occasions. Aren't people impatient? Despite its athletic prowess, the 1.5-litre engine achieves a reasonable 49.6mpg with combined use. With CO2 emissions at 135g/km, road tax is Pounds 120 and from 2010 will go down to Pounds

Safety features include driver, passenger and front side airbags as well as standard electronic stability control.
At Pounds 11,995 on the road, the Mazda 2 Sport hatchback is agile and nippy and if you need a place to put the things you just might have to use at some time in your life, then there is plenty of storage space.
