Probably the Mk.3.5

An updated Mk.3

It is indeed just a facelift, but with a few mechanical changes too. Likely to be a Mk3.5 as Fruitcake says.

Two PH threads on the subject:

Outside of this, I spoke to Mazda who have hinted that the new car will feel a bit sportier than the Mk3, although couldn't say for definite when it would come out, other than 'in the new year'.

Hope this helps.

I've put in an expression of interest in the 3.5 and have had the following response:
