Since 1988 Bublewicz changed make and started using private Mazda 323 4WD because A group Polonez 1.5C Turbo was not competitive enough.
In 1991, he was the first in Poland who created a professional team – Marlboro Rally Team Poland.
In 1992 Bublewicz was the vice–champion of European Rally Championship and received the prize from Max Mosley's hands.
He also financed his passion himself managing a car service garage where, in 1993, he employed 50 people.

He switched to driving a rally car.
Marian Bublewicz became an icon of Polish sport.
In 1993 his name was included in the priority list "A" – published by The Federation Internationale de l'Automobile.
Bublewicz wanted to win another title, so he bought a factory Ford Escort Cosworth.
His new car was not ready to start in the first rally, so he rented the Patrick Snijers's Ford Sierra RS Cosworth 4x4 from ERC.
Bublewicz started in the Winter Rally Lower Silesian as the number 1.
He had won this rally seven times.
During the rally, 2 km from the start of the 5th special stage of Orłowiec – Złoty Stok, on 20 February 1993 his car came off the road at a right hand corner where he struck a tree.

Marian Bublewicz died in hospital the same day Lądek-Zdrój.
Bublewicz in an interview said:
"Many admirable rally drivers died, but I consider it as a mischance that can be quite quickly suffered by the loss of life in such discipline. It is a great tragedy when a man dies in sport competition."
His death provoked a number of changes in safety and organisation standards on the rally special stages in Poland.
Since 1994 season 10th winter Lower Silesian Rally is called "The Memorial of Marian Bublewicz".
Marian was very hard-working and had a habit of spending as much time on training as he could so OBRSO (FSO Development Division) constructed special Polonez training car based on 3 door body with fiberglass parts like in 2000 Turbo but with much cheaper, modified 1.5 OHV engine and smaller dog-clutch gearbox instead of 2.0 DOHC turbocharged engine with more expensive transmission.

There has also been set a commemorative stone in that place.
