Same chassis as Ford Focus (international) and also shares with C-Max Focus, Kuga, Volvo S40 etc., etc.. but uses a Mazda engine. Nice styling and quite popular - Mazda had to ramp up production to meet world demand... It handles well (Ford), It's rigid (Mazda) and it's safe (Volvo) - No joke, apparently the engineers all collaborated with their comparative advantages to come up with a platform for all of the companies. Shouldn't give any hassles, just get the latest possible model. 2007+ had even better tuned suspension and noise deadening.
