    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can offer me some advice here. I'm looking to buy a Mazda 3 and I'm thinking about a 2004 or 05 depending on price. So first:
    Are these a good car? the 1.4 petrol hatchback
    What would you consider to be acceptable mileage/ km on a 04 or 05 used Mazda 3? I see some under 100k and some over, and i imagine that for a ten year old car over 100k could be acceptable but that really depends on the reliability of the car!!
    My car is a 00 and has just gone over the 100,000 on the clock so that's why mileage is a big thing for me as I think my own car is reasonable.
    What would you consider a reasonable price for one?
    And finally, where on earth should I look for one around carlow?!! I've been on a lot of websites, including adverts and typically any I like are gone already or based in the north or someplace!!

    Any help or advice regarding these cars and buying in or close to Carlow would be great, if I could get a touring model that would be great but I'm not going to be too fussy in that regards and bumps, scratches and dents are a huge NO-nO!!

    Probably better off asking in the motors forum tbh.
