Hi folks,

Picked up a 6MPS from a Mazda dealer a few months ago in the fastest colour with 31k on the clock. Thoroughly enjoyed the first few months after driving a diesel MPV for a year! The car is standard although have put new Conti Sport Contact 5s all round and the obligatory wheel refurb gets done next week.

Cheers, Ken

Hello & :welcome:
So not just the fastest model and colour, but also the fastest name too :D

We have another potential spammer here boys :thumbs: :ban:

If you don't mind, what did you pay?

£6200 for mine in January and I bet I've spent over £2000 on it since then : eek2 :

Thanks for the welcome.

56 plate, paid £6250, no trade-in, 12 month MOT & service, with Mazda warranty but the car needed all four wheels refurbed. Interestingly the dealer left some paperwork in the glove box along with the car history which included details of the £4400 trade-in price the previous owner got for the car. At these sort of prices a 6 MPS is a lot of car for the money and I'm sure I've seen circa £6k depreciation in a year on other cars I have owned!

5.1 and new pads on soon (will check what you guys recommend), XO remap and Eibachs should give me the car I'm after.
