Context: The replacement is okay . I have given some thought to what I would buy if I could buy a new car and pretty much settled on the new Mazda 3 . ( Amusingly , when Hols went to buy a new car she asked me if I had any suggestions and I said the Mazda 3 and after all her dad 's comparison shopping and strict examination of cars , she ended up with the Mazda 3 , thus convincing me I was right about them . ) However , the lovely Marcasita has made me aware of the new Mini Cooper Clubman . Mini 's are swell .
