Hi Folks, Just joined up to this site and would like to say hi to everyone at mpsowners. Looks a very professional setup you guys have here!  My main reason for joining was to find out a bit more about the Mazda 6 MPS from the people that know best. I am currently driving a 53 WRX Blobeye which I love to bits but just sometimes think it may be time to 'Grow Up' without having to give up too much of the fun factor.  I have already done a bit of reading about the common faults and things to look out for and to be honest there doesn't seem to be anything major. So initial signs look promising! Any comments or recommendations more than welcome.

There are some nice 6MPS's for sale on Pistonheads and Autotrader at the moment so looks like a good time to buy. I'm a 3 owner myself so I'm not too savvy about the ins and outs of buying a 6, but they look lovely, are equipped really well and can be modified with UK or US tuning parts

Thanks for the warm welcome.
Can't believe there are so many Scots too!
If anyone feels like dropping in for a cup of tea and showing me there
MPS 6 would be well cool.
