Hi

I'm looking at replacing my 1997 mitsubishi legnum str station wagon with something more up to date. My budget is around 12000 and I'm considering a mazda 3 or 6. I will mainly be using the car for longer trips and carrying mountain bikes. Are there any specific models I should be looking for or looking to avoid? How important is the mileage done in the cars and are there any other cars I should consider?

Thanks
