FORD vs MAZDA vs HONDA

Imagine: you have €30,000 or so to spend to treat yourself. The Ford Focus RS has caught your eye but its starting price of €33,650 is too rich for your blood. Should you just bite the bullet or consider the new Mazda 3 MPS. The front end is edgier with its aggressive head lamps, but isn’t nearly as sporty from the side, perhaps that is due to the five doors. The interior is up to snuff and the equipment package is complete; all for €30,000.
