shit forgot about a maestro or mini 1275 gt!

one of my fave cars of all time are maestro turbo's and montego's!

fuck post 1990+ cars!! 80's FTW

 

r5 gtt/maestro t/mk2 gte 16v for me

 

my fave hatch ever is my 3 door, but no fords allowed so mini will do, lol

 

Ed shape civic Vtec. Or a crx sir.

Or a swift gti. There awsome aswell.

 

i voted the pug 1900.was a lightweight little weapon.

 

The japs had some proper weapon hatchs come to think of it, whilst we had tourque steering lunatics.

( both have there place lol )

 

same as this ,owned both , but sorry bud its hsr or just hs

 

also forgot about swift,I cant stand them, mine was clean but handled shite

 

MK2 Golf 16v

 

delta hf

 

i had a Pug 205 1.9 gti and a swift GTI was only 17/18 at the time so i thought they were the best thing ever but the pug deffo had the edge over the swift for me

 

Manta and lancias

 

Ye i know im on a iphone here

 

MK1 Astra GTE

 

Renault 5 GTT for me

Luciano

 

Golf GTI hands down.

 

Renault 5 turbo for sure

 

Uno turbo everytime,and I`ve had nearly all those cars or been in them/raced them back in the day.
Bleed valve,1 bar boost and it was proper hunting territory,wasted several big boys over the years in mine,including some serious embarrassment to a 16valve golf gti,it was awesome fun.
Downsides?unreliable,shite handling and terrible build,but seeing all those led`s light up on the dash and watching that boost gauge peak just off the end was awesome,loss of traction in near enough all gears in the wet was great too. I remember one night down the Kingsway in Swansea there were about 6 of us with them,in various colours,one even had a DIGIDASH!!!
Out of the others listed it would be the 16v gte for me,R5 was just the most unreliable car ever,pug too slow,golf mk1 cool,mk2 needed a decent engine,civics were ok but pretty rare back in the day and all that other jap shite was just that,shite.
Mk1 astra gte also a cracking shout.

 

Golf GTI.. Why is this not an option?

 

205 GTi , they look sooo cool

 

lancia delta intergrale.

 

All of them!!

 

Where's the golf gti 16v mk2???

 

renault 5 Turbo had 4 of these

 

mk1 uno turbo for me, that was my fav hot hatch in my teens, creamed many a r5 in it

 

mk1 golf gti, how is it not on the list?

 

Metro turbo, gokart handling

 

MK2 Golf Gti, loved mine.

 

Lotus sunbeam.....
