How the hell did the Gti-R get on that list :shock: I suppose there is a few other lemons on there to keep it company :lol:

I voted for the Mk1 golf Gti :thumbsup:

Still waiting on some shims!
Can the Ford Escort Cosworth really be classed as a 'Hot Hatch'..?

I cant think of another hot hatch in standard form that was quicker to 60 than the Pulsar?

At least one other person voted for a decent car 8)

Modern car manafacturers should learn a lesson from something thats getting on 30 years old and start making their hot hatches lighter instead of heavier :der:

a lot of it is down to crash protection, the weight of front doors now is getting stupid.....

and have you noticed how cars are getting wider but there's more space between the seat and the door and the centre consoles are the same width?

I noticed that last time i moved i moved the spare doors for my car, if a set of doors off a 15 year old sunny is heavy i hate to think how much they weigh nowadays :?

Why isn't the Maestro turbo on that list :oops: 6.9s-60 and it wasn't overly light at about 1100ish kg


I voted Gtir just for the sake of it, but I think the MK1 Gti or 205Gti are probably the best

I voted for the R as I do honestly think it is better than the rest, but the only other one that should really take the crown has to be the Lancia delta
