2012 Mazda 2 Neo – Automatic | Apple CarPlay | Rego Until May 2027
Selling my silver 2012 Mazda 2 Neo, 1.5L petrol automatic, 5-door hatchback.
Compact, fuel-efficient and incredibly easy to drive around Sydney. Great for city driving, tight streets and parking, yet surprisingly spacious inside. I’ve even managed to fit three people, two large suitcases and two carry-on bags for an airport trip!

About the Car
As second owner of this car, I’ve owned this Mazda for around three years, and it’s been a genuinely reliable little car. It’s taken me on road trips across much of Australia and has never left me stranded.
I’ve kept up with regular maintenance and addressed issues as they arose rather than putting repairs off.
For a 2012 vehicle with this mileage, it naturally has some age-related wear, but it has been well looked after and drives well.
A practical and economical hatchback, ideal as a first car, daily commuter or affordable runabout.
📍 Inspections available in Ashfield by appointment.
