Anybody know anything about the Mazda 3 Mps Aero Sports?

We have a customer who wants to part ex one but cant get a decent under-write on it, every Mazda dealer or specialist runs a mile when you mention them, are they really that bad? One guy said he would rather be told he has 2 minutes left to live


Its an 07 plate done 40k with full Mazda History, not a mark on the body or interior, in Silver with the full Aero Sports kit (apparently an optional extra).

We phoned 8 dealers the other day and didnt get a sniff out of any of them.

 

Not too sure, but my mates just got one and reckons its a nice, quick motor

 

Quick, seem to hold their price, but quite a few recalls on them I think. Used to go on the forums but not been on for ages. 2.3T, Aero is the desired option, has an obvious bigger than usual rear spoiler.

 

They are quick I can vouch for that, but really thirsty too, the customer claims to get 22mpg on a good run but when he gives it beans that drops to about 17mpg, his work have just taken his fuel card off him and stopped all over time too,he is gutted.

 

Ive heard they are a quick car too.

 

Driven one some time ago and was quite impressed. The non Aero can look quite a sleeper i.e. understated. The aero mirrors are E36 M3 rip off's IIRC

Arent these in the higher tax band due to the high engine emmissions?

 

I think so, thats another reason nobody will touch it.

Rog - This one is the 2.3T Aero Sport, so its the good one.

Fook that!

 

The only way I would pay that kind of RFL is for a Range Rover Sport or Bmw X5.

 

Every mazda dealer runs a mile simply because they dont sell & dont want to be stock with one in stock. I worked for mazda for 3years and i think we sold 2or3. There a bloody quick car though and pretty reliable, barely any recalls on them or anything like that
