Bought a black 3 mps aero 07 with 27000 and full msh, gave £9000 good value? Shame bout the snow desperate to get it out. I have'nt drove it much yet but god is it fast big step up from a 106 gti.

hello and welcome

if from a dealer (with warranty) and a really good example i would say price is about ok, maybe a little high.

If private then probably a bit to much

hope the snow clears quick for you

Dont worry about the price mate i still think 10grand for a 2007 hatch of the mps's spec is a bargain!! Enjoy the car a major step up from the 106 gti but am sure the 106 was just as much fun (in its own little way) maybe worth seeing if its had the vvti actuator changed?? or if its noisey on startup... mine just failed on me ... :( viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2687

If the actuator has not been changed would mazda stand the cost

sadly i think it might be just out of its 3 year period... but they should cough up some of the cost... having said all that it will more than likely be ok for many miles/years anyways...... think mine has had a few choice mods on it for quite a few miles and me getting the map done kind of finished it off... but dont forget mine has 68k on it!

I have nearly always had hot hatches last one was a clio V6 and before that had a M3, alfa 147 GTA, clio F1 another MPS......

MPS should be a little quicker than a stock evo once rolling mate.. i recon it woul have to be a evo fq340 upwards to keep up with mine now its had a few mods and a map... definately quicker than my old m3 cab
