Thanks for all the responses, especially turbo11. If a very similar car (which the Mazda3 is) can take the H tyres, and three major tyre manufacturers say it's OK, then I'm fairly happy with that.
I'll give the car another look over tomorrow, but I have to say that I've not found anything to suggest the answer to the question on any labels.
The irony is that the "sweet spot" for value-for-money winter tyres, which seems to be the Nankang SV-2 (which gets some very good reviews on-line, lasts well and seems to have more than adequate grip in all weathers) is available in V-rating anyway so this might be academic. It's just that a lot of products are only available in H, hence the question.
