Welcome ..
Just picked mine up this week and exceeds all expectations. Had a few blasts and mostly been round town done 232 miles and if the computer is correct I'm averaging 30.2 which is incredible for the power under the bonnet.
Can't stop smiling and figure this grin will last as long as ownership ,they are a very special car.

Thanks Guys.
Originally thought about the velocity red, but after seeing one in the flesh the white looked soooo much better.
Which is about as well as there were only two MPS left in the country and both were white. If I didn't but an order in quick I would of lost out in the 42 month interest free credit too. Became a no brainer after test driving a Focus ST and a Audi 2.0L TFSI.
Test drove at Holcroft Mazda Stoke-on_Trent as this was the only place that had one in stock / or a demo to test drive.
Thankfully I know the area a bit and the dealer took me on an extended run on some great country roads.
Came back from the test drive with a huge grin on my face.
11am tomorrow I'll be the proud owner. Hoping it will be dryer than the last two days.
