Question:
There are so many good ones at the minute,so i put this poll together to see what people think.Mine is Golf GTI

Choices:
Mini Cooper S
VW Golf GTI
Ford Focus ST
Vauxhall Astra VXR
Renault Megane Trophy

 

If money wasn't an issue, Mini Cooper S.

If it was, Ford ST.


One struggles to see the point of this vague thread but then again mabye lanica will post a Proton and an argument will break out, livening it up a bit.

Is this thread deja vu...but like all over again?
There's some glaring ommisions from the list Festa...and one that should never have made it!

If you like Minis, Cooper S Works.
Best all-rounder, Focus or Golf.
Like your thrills served raw? VXR.

My choice?
The forthcoming Civic Type R please.

Astra VXR - proper old school hot hatch & decebt value too.

wouldn't want any of those 5

in my view a hot hatch is a small car, none of those listed are small they are family size cars.

gotta be the focus ST.

The Honda civic type r.

renault sport clio
mitsibushi colt czt
the new suzuki swift sport looks interesting

Renault Megane Trophy for me.i dont really like the golf gti anymore it doest seem fat now but we be looking back at it and saying 'nowhere near as good as the old ones'like we did with the mk4.i like the focus st .duno about the cooper really .vxr... mental...very cool.but the megane looks amazing.

A family member was debating over a new car. He currently has a previous gen leon cupra. Hes holding out for the New type R, if it looks anything like the yellow prototype then it will easily be the best looking hot hatch, period!

It will, and it is.

I also think honda have done the best thing to keep the 197bhp engine. Any more than 200bhp and the problems with FWD become even worse.

ye i saw it in red looks awsome

i saw it in yellow,looks even better.

i hear that its lighter, does that mean its smaller or has special body panels? if i got an old type r i was wondering if i could nick bits off it to make it lighter.
