Clio Sport - Civic Type r - Leon Cupra R or Mini Cooper S?

Diesel Cupra's certainly are quick

Cheap remap and they're even quicker and still a lot cheaper to run than any of the above.

Knowsit, let's spam this French thread with our VAG opinions

Yep....and apparently very engaging to drive.

On my list when I come to buy a new car (hopefully next year)

Plus with German build quality and less of a chav rep they are the best package these days IMO. Thats why a bought one, VAG powa!!

I test drove the Ibiza FR with a Revo remap so should have been pushing around 200bhp and, yes it was fast, yes it handled well, but when I got back in my punto I didnt feel dissapointed with the Punto. Now when I drove a 172 I hated getting back into my Punto.

Leon - fastest (1.8 turbo 225bhp), most spacious. Worst interior bar the seats.
Clio - Fairly fast for what it is, nice looks. Made from melted down plastic cuttlery, pants driving position.
Type R - Prob best engine out of the 4, good driving position. But looks like something to stop your door from closing.
Cooper S - Quick (although prob the slowest of the 4 byu a few tenths of a second, which is nothing in every day driving), good build quality. Expensive and sounds stupid when booting it due to the supercharger.

Just my opinion

so none of the above then yh?lol:lolup:

Don't know about the Leon, but my diesel Ibiza is certainly more fun/engaging to drive than my CTR. Try and ignore the engine noise and it's a winner
