Back to Black for sporty Mazda 3

MAZDA has reintroduced the Sport Black special-edition version of its 3 hatchback (above), which is on sale at UK dealerships now and limited to 700 units.

Priced from £21,595, it’s based on the plush SE-L Nav trim version of the car, but is marked out by a handful of styling tweaks.

These include unique 18-inch alloy wheels, black door mirrors and a black bootlid spoiler.
