New Mazda owner

[jaypeemac76]

Hi folks.

I just bought a new Mazda 5 Sport last month. I am from Glasgow, Scotland (UK).

I just googled 'Mazda 5 wind deflectors' and found out about this site.

Looking forward to using the forum, and i've already seen some excellent pics of 5's with bodykits(wow)

so, anyway, just introducing myself

Welcome. I've had mine for about 3 months and love it

Welcome!

Congrats on the purchase. Great vehicle.

What do you get, in terms of a package with the UK Sport version?

I noticed when I was back last month that the UK 5 has a slightly different body style than the one's we get.

Welcome to our group. It's nice to see a vehicle that is truly a "world car" Though there are minor differences, it's still pretty rare for us Yanks to be driving something available to anyone overseas!

So which Model did you end up with and which engine/transmission?

Welcome!

Chinese Mazda 5

I just got mine about 20 days ago. Manual 2.0L 6-speed. Love it so far (drive). It's 100% imported from Japan but I was waiting for this car about 1.5 months.

This is mine

this is my Mazda 5 Sport 2008.

The colour is Storm blue, and it's a 2.0 Sport model

I am currently looking to install a HID headlamp upgrade, but am finding it difficult to find somebody to install it.

You don't need to find anyone to install it. There is a DDM slimline kit selling right here on the forums for $110 and it is very very simple to install. Almost as easy as replacing bulbs.

Sweet. 6 speed manual and a MP3 6 disk changer! Congratulations

Nice air freshener

Somebody has put the steering wheel on the wrong side though...
