Mazda MPS 272 bhp - super awesome rapid beast enjoy

[DrR]

As much as I'd like to, can't at the moment. Not long had the Octavia. Hard going from a year old ST to a 13 year old Skoda lol. Got more boring things to chuck my money into for next year or so.

 

[Danith]

Same, but what was boring to me a few years ago isn't so boring anymore
Defo getting old now. I accept it! Had about 5 beers max all Christmas/New year.

 

[Danith]

Can yoy Adam and f**kin eve it. I've been driving it today and thought Its too good to sell and I'm not getting any interest anyway.
Then I come home to 3 messages asking to view asap.

MCS? Supercharged mini cooper? Love the whine from those, not so keen on the tubbys, same engine as the 206rc wasn't it?
Ebay just seems to be dominating everything, I held off advertising on there til today as I thought it was a bit like gumtree and would send out the wrong message. Guess not.

The turbo lump in the newer models was a Peugeot affair, the earlier supercharged lump not so, thankfully! (Its a Chrysler/Rover creation IIRC.)

Its an awesome little car tbh, struggling to replace it with something of similar value which speaks volumes IMO.

 

[Danith]

My brother had the Peugeot and it was garbage! Turbo unit failed a couple of times.

 

[Daz_RT_04]

I used to work for a Peugeot dealership.

They are sort-of getting their act together after years of producing shite. The newer stuff like the new shape 308 is a decent car (won car of the year I believe) but a touch expensive for the market they are aiming the kitted models at.

 

[Danith]

Vowed never to have a pug or Citroën again, the build quality is terrible. His was brand new and all it did was confirm how crap they are.

 

[Danith]

SOLD! Ebay FTW
Right! What next?!

 

[imprezaworks]

My commision for suggesting it

 

[Danith]

Should've just listened to the car salesman from the off

 

[CrippsCorner]

Ebay ftw definitely... sold my Clio 182 in about 8 hours on there lol.

 

[Danith]

Need to flog my mums fiesta now. Can i just use the same listing and change photos and Details?

 

[celicaturbolly]

Nice car, have lots of want for one. Sadly saving for a house currently

 

[Danith]

Can see the appeal of them, it wasn't my cup of tea though

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

As much as I loved mine, I didn't love it as much as my 172

 

[Danith]

I liked it, but the novelty soon wore off. Very crashy too. I'd say the MPS is incredibly fast, but not at all balanced. Crashy and heavy.
I love my Ep3 even more now!

I fuckin hated my EP3 lol

 

[Danith]

Ha, think @imprezaworks didn't manage to gel with his either! It took me a while after the clio, 172 defo better out the box. Now i've got all my bits on the ep3 and tweaked it i Love it.

 

[imprezaworks]

The ep3 was like my Megane. A car I always wanted to try but never loved. A bit like if you were to meet your hero and he turned out to be an utter bell. The clios are great fun. I no doubt will flit away to try something else and then come back to a clio. Losing money in the process, obvs.

 

[Danith]

Obvs. That's part and parcel of being a petrolhead though.

 

[imprezaworks]

Obvs. That's part and parcel of being crap with money though.
