important point to note about the SKYACTIV G also is that the engine in the Mazda 3 has much longer ratios with the gearbox in the 120HP trim. i do a frequent derbyshire to hampshire trip and i often hit 52-53MPG (75k on the clock, 2017 model). These engines in the mazda's are just stupidly economical considering how great they are.

Would love to see a set of car reviews that are with likely first cars for new drivers. Thinking stuff like 2010 polos, fiestas, corsas etc :)

Hi Richard!! It’s my turn to say that I passed my test today with 4 minors and the examiner couldn’t even remember why he marked one of them 😂. Your videos have been absolutely amazing in helping me to pass and it’s safe to say I will still be an enthusiastic viewer
-
Hey, I just passed my driving test with only 3 minors! I have to say thank you for the great informative content you provided, hours of lessons finally paid off.
-
Great video and great channel! I passed my test over a decade ago, but your genuine passion for driving makes your videos hypnotic to watch - and I've learned a few great tips! Thanks Richard!
-
Hi Richard! I passed first time today, and your videos helped me massively, I couldn't have done it without you! thank you!
-
This Mazda is a gem. Hope it continues in today's EV/SUV-obsessed market.
-
Thank you so much for your videos, I passed my driving test today, first try. I had zero lessons, however as a full cat A motorcyclist, i drove a reliant Rialto 3 wheeler for just over 3 years, giving me my experience, you videos among others helped me prepare for the test, I took a gamble on Youtube lessons and it paid off.

the on off gas pedal on cold starts is something i have been looking for as a reason on why my car hates me sometimes and this man once again clears all other channels and mentions the cause and logic. Bravo
-
Passed my test this morning, watching your videos definitely helped. Thank you! 😁
-
Thanks so much for your videos, I passed my test recently with 2 minors primarily due to watching your channel. For anyone about to do their test, try not to stress as the stress will mess you up
-
Always such a pleasure to watch these videos 👍
-
I passed my test today with just one minor, was my 2nd go but still so happy, your longer vids on how you drive around citys (Brighton) helped alot. Should do more. Thanks again.
-
These are such a joy and also informative. Keep up your amazing content Richard it's highly valuable and wonderfully put together aand produced. Review from long time viewer! ❤
-
I’ve passed my test a couple months ago and watched your videos to get more knowledge and confidence, and I just love that you drive a mx-5 it’s my dream car from how it looks to how it feels 😊
-
The fact that a 2 liter is more economical than a 1.4 really conflicts with my intuition. But I guess that’s what tests are for. Great vid!
-
bro you go so in depth i loved it
-
Passed today with 0 minors! Your videos have helped a lot in the process along with getting me more interested in driving too. Thank you Richard.

From technical side, apart from what has already been mentioned, a great deal of technological advancement has be put on the Mazda with their Skyactive engines. Apart from the high compression ratio, optimised intake and exhaust arrangements, weight loss etc. it all adds up. It's an area where average ordinary consumers don't care but I think the result speaks for itself and make the Mazda engine development team proud.

Hey Richard, just wanted to say i finally passed my driving test today 2nd time, your videos have been a huge contributing factor to my pass as i had 0 prior lessons with an instructor and instead learnt with family. i have been into cars since before i could touch the pedals and i am eternally grateful for your videos for helping me to not only pass my test but learn from a fellow enthusiast . cant thank you enough
