Review of Mazda CX-5 selection

— An IT company relocated to Spain on a work visa, an IT specialist)

— The car is mainly needed for family trips around Spain and Europe, a crossover as the most versatile option, not very old, up to 5-6 years old, ideally automatic, all-wheel drive and good equipment so that the whole family is comfortable, I was not specifically looking for a CX-5.

— First impressions: beautiful, rich equipment, adaptive cruise works better than the 2021 Jeep Compass, quiet, you can only hear the diesel, but my wife says that it also rattles like a 2006 Toyota)) Very comfortable seats, it's convenient to drive long distances, the climate control works well, there's a lot of space in the cabin. Anya's (Dima's wife) first impression is that it's long-awaited) We haven't tested the lights yet, it feels like a crossover - average, probably worse than a Ford or a Volkswagen, but OK, overall.

— After selecting a remote and confirming the victory at the auction, you throw money on "some invoice" without a contract. How long to wait for the car is not entirely clear: there is no tracking, until it arrives in Malaga nothing is clear. I don't know how to fix it here, since the delivery is on a third party. There are concerns about further registration and its timing, but it is too early to say, I think the guys will do everything ok.

— The guys threw in a lot of options within the designated framework. I liked that Maxim is always in touch, responds promptly, met me at the airport and told me some life hacks about Spain, etc.

I'm generally happy with the car, I'm not sure I could buy something similar here for this amount, but I won't say that it's impossible either)

The process is not finished yet, it remains to get Spanish numbers, but I hope that all the most difficult and stressful things are behind us)!
