I'm quoting a mate, I'd heard it before but didn't actually believe it until he said so too. I guess he was wrong. :rolleyes:

Clios are suspect build quality arn't they? Not sure on this, but they are a very girly car, seen quite a few modded too.

Corsas are very common (modded ones), aw mayte!

Everyone trys to turn Escorts into cosworths.

306s have good handling, been in a turbo disel one, and it gripped and gripped.

Thought about a 205gti? High insurance, but quick as hell, and really good handling.

Most pugs have good handling, bits fall off the inside though.

i think you should get a MK5 fiesta, i think the zetec puts out about 75 brake which is good and the insurance wont take the **** as they would with a car like a fiesta Si.

Yeah my friend has got a clio, it feels like a big car, not small and crashy like you'd expect.
