For The Sophisticated Maverick: Make Your Mark

Saturday October 17th 2009: The breath-taking all new Mazda3 has finally arrived in Ireland. Sleek, dynamic and exhilarating are just a few words that have been used to describe Mazda’s complete redesign, resulting in this new, stunning vehicle. Already launched in several countries including Australia, Japan and the UK, the Mazda3 is proving extremely popular due to its vibrant drive and distinct style. The Mazda3 is for those who think differently, those who are individual, and those who naturally stand out from the crowd. It’s quite simply, striking.

Completely redesigned with a dramatic new front face, great interior and new 1.6d engine it stands out from the rest and has a unique character. Combined with its value, high levels of standard equipment and impressive CO figures, the all new Mazda3 is a highly attractive package which we expect to be very well received by customers in Ireland”.
