Hi Everyone, Just wanted to introduce myself. My name's Kyle and I'm from Doncaster! And that's the game show side of it done with. I've made the decision that it's time for a change from my current car and the Mk2 3 MPS is ticking every box I can think of. I haven't got one yet but I'm going to look at a stock aluminium silver beauty tomorrow. I've been invited along by a fellow member...not actually sure of her forum name but she's called Lynsey and owns a white Mk2. I also know ThumpJunkie from a previous life. Obviously I don't want to start asking the same questions that have been asked thousands of times over (forum etiquette isn't lost on me) but I would like to know if there are any infamously useful threads I should be aware of on the boards leading to my first Mazda ownership? Obviously I'm looking for anything relating to things to look out for when buying, common faults, tuning guides, etc. I'll do some searching in the mean time but any help would be appreciated. So that's my hello...been a while since I've had to do this...! Kyle

Welcome along. I am not a MKII owner but if you do have one in your sights, it may be helpful to know which year it is. Common faults may be restricted to particular years.

Very good point, and thanks for the welcome. Realistically with my budget I'm looking at a 60 plate. This is the one I'm going to look at... http://bit.ly/1jUk3qE

Hi Kyle,
I'm Doncaster,
Give me a shout if you want to know anything. There are at least 3 in Doncaster, 2 red mk2 and a red mk1 and possibly white mk2
