Mazda 6 new or 2nd hand?

I am looking to buy this car but I'm in a quandary as what to do.
I've seen a 2017 model with less than 3,000 miles on the clock for £17999 approved used at a garage 200 miles away.
Or at our local Mazda garage I could buy a new 2018 model with £5000 off under the scrappage scheme,this brings the sport nav model I'm looking at down to 20,995 Or thereabouts.
My quandary is which to go for. I'm tempted by the new one,the depreciation being offset by the scrappage payment.
Does anyone else agree?
