Well 172 ownership is coming to an end :(

Felt like it was time for a bit of a change and fancied something a bit better built, bit more comfy and something a bit quicker than the clio. I know it probably wont go round corners like the 172 does but im sure everything else about the car will more than make up for it.

Took me a while to decide what it was that I wanted next, and what would actually be a step up from the clio, rather than a side step. The two contenders were a Focus ST-3, or a Mazda3 MPS, but after a few days of seeing four or five ST's a day on the roads, and not seeing a single MPS, I set my heart on the MPS

So went to see this one on wednesday, and then went back yesterday to put a deposit on it.

Cant wait to pick it up saturday, im like a kid at xmas at the moment, so excited!! Will miss the little clio tho if im being honest, and one day i'll probably end up with another one once I get sick of the running cost of the MPS lol

Great choice!

I sold my 172 cup and got a Mazda 3 MPS - only recently gone back to a 182 to save on running costs.

It really is a great car - get yourself over on mpsowners.co.uk some really useful stuff over their!

Here was my old one:
