Or the "boy racer" favourites.

Vauxhall Nova (everybody knew somebody who had one!)

And it's spiritual successor, Citroen Saxo (preferably in that yellow colour it was offered in)

lancia integrale - crazy car once you tuned it up

Toyota starlet glanza - again, things got a bit mad once you tuned that little 1.3 engine, capable of 300bhp on the standard internals.

Civic type R (B16) - serious power output from a 1.6 NA engine

Golf R - does very well at going very fast in a straight line

All fantastic cars but personally I think the new civic type R (FK8) is the current king of the hot hatch.

That car is an engineering masterpiece. In terms or track capabilities it’s doninated cars it shouldn’t be able to.

Engineering masterpiece it may be but why is it so ugly!?

Track my arse; greasy road / rally super stage

Lancia Delta destroyed the field in the good old (deadly) days of group B rally Peugeot and Audi thought they were top dogs then this monster tore them apart... and then group B got banned. Killing drivers was one thing, but spectators too...

But there was just something magical about Renaults Clio Williams on the road, those gold wheels.

The RS Twingo mk 2 was a bit wild

Peugeot 205 1.9 GTI? Used to have a Renault clio sport 182 which was pretty bonkers!

Met a couple from Bournemouth a number of years ago who had an old Renault 5 Turbo... still recovering, or maybe that was just his driving

I’m torn between how to say what’s best. Speed and handling. Or looks? Coz the xr2 was heavy and took corners like a gallion ship.
