I bought my Mazda 6 MPS on the 1st of May. 07 plate with 37k miles. I had a Jaguar X-Type 3 litre before and damn the MPS is quick. I live in Basildon, Essex and work in Rochester, Kent so you may spot me on the A13, M25 and A2/M2 mon to thurs. I'm looking at getting some MPSOC stickers but the sticker threads seem a bit dead. I've already put an X-carlink in it and changed the lower rear reflectors for LED types and changed all the rear bulbs for LED types. Changed all interior bulbs for LED. I have waiting to be fitted 40 groove front brake discs and H&R lowering springs i dont like to waste time changing stuff. I'm lowering it because my manager at work asked me if i'm going rallying in it with the height between the tyres and the arches  Stu

Welcome along mate. I think you may have the lowest mileage 6 on the forum as mine has just ticked over to 38k The springs make a big difference to the appearance of the 6. Took me about a year to get round to doing mine and I was kicking myself for not doing it sooner. Any other plans for the car??

Welcome along mate.
Springs alone wont do much but lower the stance mate, for better handling the dampers need replacing as there far to soft.
Give Ross a PM regarding MPSOC decals.
