Stunning mate, looks the exact same as my mates one but different coloured wheels.
They sound superb on boost with the standard exhaust.
Infact that looks familiar that car, was it owned by a policeman???
Those wheels are brand new as the ones that came with it were suffering from laquer peel and then swapped for new items from mazda.
Thats if its the car i'm thinkin of lol

Love those Mazdas. I had a race with one off the lights. Thought I'd win but it left my car like I had selected reverse.

Compared to the cost of fuel, the tax is nothing - wouldn't bother me one bit

They sound so good with the standard exhaust, I don't wanna change it but told it's quite restrictive? The sound makes me sexwee.
Yeah it was mate, which made the test drive interesting Nice and local to me which is why I decided this was the one.
Yep that's right too, he must be on some forum I take it, gonna go have a hunt up now and see what I can find

Oh oh if they have the bits for Cruise Control that'd be wicked Just the controls on the steering wheel and a brake light switch apparently, normally about £130?

Yeah definetly shocked a few people tonight, especially my mates
Yeah the original owner had them stolen off the car apparently, and he replaced them with standards as they are easier to see out of. Quite a few people do it apparently and I don't like M3 mirrors so I'm kind of glad.

Duratec Turbo type engine apparently, not looked into it alot. 4 cylinder though.

3 mps is a 2.3 4 cylinder turbo
the mazda is quicker to 60 by a small margin.
