I’m not able to pick up my new Mazda 3 tomorrow. Apparently there’s outstanding finance on it from the previous owner and Mazda need to declare it cleared before they can allow me to take ownership of the car.

They have, however, offered to lend me a Mazda 2 until this is sorted out. So that’s what I’ll be picking up tomorrow instead of mine. Hopefully it won’t take too long to sort out, and Mazda will arrange a swap at my house which saves me going back to the dealership. Although this is a minor annoyance, still I have to give Mazda a thumbs up for offering me a car, more than can be said about my insurance company!

Update: My Sakata will be delivered on the 28th! Can you tell I’m excited?
