I test drove the mazda on friday and am picking it up on thursday! But i found it strange how the speedometer only went up to 120mph.  Not that i really plan to, but surely the car would be able to go over that seing as i did once manage 125mph in my 2001 1.25l ford fiesta!  Just left me a little confused thats all, anyone know how fast they can really go?
