Hi guys! First congratulation very good club!
Now its about me: my name is carlos, 25 years old. Im portugues, living in slough!
About my cars, my first car was a mitsubishi colt 1.3! Still have that car, but its in portugal! My second car iI the one I got it now, toyota corolla t sport 1.8 192bhp!
And for my third car I want the mazda 3 mps!
My dad in portugal have a mazda 3 1.6 saloon!
So about the mps, whats the difference between the mazda 3 mps normal, and the mazda 3 mps aero kit!?
The road tax is really that high (475£)? And what about thr insurance?
For now is only this!

Thanks!

Hi and welcome along. Yes tax is high but it is more than offset by the cheaper insurance

Hi and welcome to the forum mate!

3 aero has sporty wing mirrors, bigger spoiler and eibach springs (lowering the car 25mm front and 15mm at the rear).

The insurance is fairly cheap compared with evos and scobbies.

Good luck finding the right car.
You would be better off selling your car first as you can find better deals with cash in your pocket looking private as dealers really do hype the price on these cars.

Short runs it's pants but for long journeys it ain't to bad as long as you stay out of boost. I can't give you figures as I only do short runs

Short trips=25 mpg
Long trips= 35+mpg

All depends on how heavy your right foot is really :thumbs:
