Hi All,
Am a long term fan of the Mazda 3 MPS and am looking at buying one

Would you go for a 1st generation or a 2nd generation if one had to pay £2000 more for the second gen MPS(from 2009)?

Or is the difference in performance, quality issues not significant and is it better to buy the older generation model for this difference in price?

Heard that the 2nd gen body is stiffer and there are other changes.

Plus it looks more radically different but are these differences major or just a marginal change?

Also anything I should look for on seeing the car?

Thanks
John

See link below to another post about the same thing recently.

There is multiple posts there and I have mentioned about the difference in specs etc between mk1 and mk2.

However if you dont use tapatalk app or the link doesnt work properly, then just use the forum search function and search for "opinions requested" that's the topic title.
