Mazda MX-5 named as ‘best roadster' and ‘best used car' by automotive experts.
Mazda's range of ‘Zoom-Zoom' vehicles continue to impress automotive experts, with the iconic Mazda MX-5 roadster receiving critical acclaim from Auto Express and Carsite.co.uk.
T W White and Sons in South London, Surrey and Kent is expecting to welcome a flurry of new and used car buyers to the dealership, looking to own the highly-regarded Mazda MX-5 after it was named ‘Best Roadster' in the 2009 Auto Express Used Car Honours and ‘Best Used Car' by online retailer Carsite.co.uk.
This is the fourth successive year the Mazda MX-5 has won the coveted Auto Express award, beating BMW and Porsche rivals for the top ranking.
"To have such high profile motoring experts, such as Auto Express and Carsite.co.uk, confirm that Mazda products are among the very best on the market really does reinforce the fact that Mazda is Britain's favourite sports car brand, both on the new and used market," enthused Gordon Parker, Mazda franchise manager at T W White and Sons.
"The Mazda MX-5 is unrivalled as a rewarding sportscar that can also be used for everyday motoring all year round, with low running costs and high levels of specification - and the whole sportscar ownership experience is supported by Mazda's legendary reliability and durability," adds Gordon Parker
The latest exterior, interior and technical upgrades to the 2009 Mazda MX-5 range ensure that the soft-top continues to offer the purest, fun-to-drive thrills, while the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe delivers an even more coupe-like, premium experience together with the same driving excitement. Both models are available at T W White and Sons and carry-over the key features which have made the Mazda MX-5 the world's best-selling sportscar.
Commenting on the Mazda MX-5's victory, Auto Express stated: "The pretty roadster is the default choice for affordable wind-in-the-hair thrills thanks to its simple folding fabric hood, entertaining rear-wheel drive handling and incredibly attractive prices. The folding hard-top Roadster Coupe variant only serves to boost the car's appeal, providing improved refinement and security. Prices start from £16,345, which makes the MX-5 something of a bargain."
Praising the Mazda MX-5's achievement on the used car market, Carsite.co.uk commented: "The Mazda MX-5 deserves the top position thanks to strong reliability, value-for-money, residual performance and driveability. Its success in our poll only goes to further support the British love affair with the drop-top."
Significantly upgraded for 2009, the 10-strong range of new Mazda MX-5 sportscars, available with either traditional soft-top or in Roadster Coupe form featuring a powered retractable hard top, have a fresh design that enhances their dynamic appeal and is harmonised with Mazda's next-generation Mazda6, Mazda3 and Mazda2 line-up.
Prices for the Mazda MX-5 2009 soft-top range start from £16,345 on-the-road. The Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe range starts at £18,345 on-the-road and boasts the world's fastest powered retractable hard top - up or top-down in just 12 seconds. T W White and Sons is currently offering 0 per cent APR* finance, with a minimum 50% deposit, or 3.9% APR** finance with no minimum deposit, on all upgraded models until 30 September 2009.
