Cheshire Data Systems Limited (CDL) is taking delivery of a fleet of 38 identical Mazda6 2.2 5dr TS 129ps diesel models worth almost £750,000 at showroom prices.

The fleet are being delivered to CDL this month, which is buying the cars through its local Mazda franchise RRG Group. The vehicles replace a fleet of Toyota Avensis cars.

CDL head of customer services Gary Johnson said: "The Mazda6 met all of our company car requirements, which in addition to being a five-door and offering strong wholelife costs is a stylish vehicle that our employees said delivered an exhilarating drive.

"Coupled with offering emissions below 140g/km and boasting a solid reputation for safety, due to its five-star European New Car Assessment Programme crash test rating, meant the Mazda6 fitted our vehicle selection criteria. The model also received plaudits from our CDL Vehicle Information Services team."

Mazda fleet and remarketing director Peter Allibon said: "CDL established some very tough requirements for their company car selection but we are delighted that the Mazda6 delivered on all fronts.

"The Mazda6 has been a fantastic success for the brand in the UK corporate market. The latest upgraded model, which went on sale in the spring, is larger, has more specification as standard, is more refined and more stylish, and promises to further boost our market share.

"As CDL discovered when analysing the marketplace, the Mazda6 is a hugely appealing car and we expect further conquest business in the coming months as a result of an increasing number of fleets experiencing the attributes of the model."
