UK car sales are blooming...

UK car sales are blooming, and Abarth is boasting the biggest rise ò€“ with more than a 1,000 per cent increase in registrations this year compared to last! Thanks to the extended Scrappage Scheme and the new 59-plate, buyers are pouring into showrooms, the Society of Manufacturers and Traders says.

The new Mazda 3 MPS...

The new Mazda 3 MPS is blossoming ò€“ and itò€™s no shrinking violet! These exclusive spy shots show the ultimate Mazda Performance Series model testing in Germany.

Power will come from the same 2.3-litre turbocharged engine as in the current car. That means around 260bhp, 0-60mph in about six seconds and a top speed of 155mph.

It will have looks to match, too. As you can see, the new hatch has big alloys, barely smaller than the wheelarches, and a gaping front air intake reminiscent of past Subaru Imprezas. A rear spoiler and full, sporty bodykit finish the look.

With the new Ford Focus RS and VWò€™s Golf GTI MkVI set to take the hot hatch class to dizzy heights when they arrive next year, the Mazda will leave nobody in any doubt about its impressive performance.

It has the same front-wheel-drive platform as the Focus, so should handle brilliantly. The finished car is set to debut at Marchò€™s Geneva Motor Show. Sales start late in 2009, with prices from about Ò£19,000.
