Is the Mazda 3 MPS a natural competitor
to the Impreza WRX?
Just got the catalogue today and it seems to be a better buy than the WRX for £500 less and is better equiped.
The STi is more powerful, but less well equiped - and £5500 more.
Subaru have got their work cut out for them .... it would seem.

I've test driven the 3 MPS. It's good.
Had a Mazda 6 before and was going to stick with the brand as it was good and reliable and the dealer service was great (GK Sheffield). But right across the road was the Subaru garage with a low mileage black hawkeye outside
.
Anyway the 3 MPS. Very comfortable inside, great Bose sound system and front wheel drive but thanks to some electrical voodoo, doesn't tie itself in knots when given some beans.
