The car I use for tuition is the Mazda2 TS2 1.4D. A comfortable and extremely manoeuvrable vehicle that is fun and very easy to drive. The quality of the car just adds to the overall experience of learning and passing your driving test.

 

The Mazda2 TS2 has a range of excellent safety features and handling capabilities that mean the driving experience is more reassuring than that in similar sized cars. It is one of the few cars in its class to have been awarded the European 5 star NCAP safety rating for its occupants.

 

It is an incredibly light and agile car, and less weight means fewer CO2 emissions. The chief designer of the Mazda2 was also responsible for the Mazda RX-8, so it has both style and the soul of a sports car inside. It was given first place in the 2008 World Car of the Year awards, beating the likes of previous winners such as BMW, Audi and Lexus. In addition it gained the highest score in the ‘Environment Section’. Amongst its features are:

The car is fitted with dual controls for your peace of mind, allowing me to assist you in the early stages of your training. However, as your driving develops, this assistance is not required and their usage becomes extremely rare.
