I cant remember the name of the show but it had that Mike bloke from Driven in it and the bald guy, Dominic something. They help people pick a motor from a shortlist of three and then try and get them a good deal. Was it called Right Car Wrong Car? Anyway i remember watching one once when they were helping a girl who had a 5GTT pick a new car from a choice of an Escort Cosworth an Impreza and a Clio Cup. In the end she did not know what to get but i remember the Cup got a big thumbs up. Sorry if i was a bit vague but it was on a fair while ago.

yep i saw that one as well,Quote: Originally posted by Rhys on 02 April 2004
There was another one where they had a Cup, a VTS and something else. They drove them round an underground carpark for a bit and decided the VTS was best car because it had free insurance
Darren Manning was the driver, he went for the VTS cos it had the insurance! it was also with the cup and a 106 GTI, i remember them giving a daft reason why they didnt like the GTI, and then went on about the how good the VTS was! Overall they said the VTS was the best value for money over the CUP and the 106 GTI - (not my words i hasten to add!)

Not really stream roller as you put it. The cup is better at silly speeds but off a set of lights in a 30 zone there wouldnt be alot in it.
Dam quick little cars them hot Saxos and 106s. Always wish Id bought one instead of my VTR.

The cup was "mentioned" on 5th gear. Tif had it matched up against a focus RS, CTR, Cupra, and mini S. SAid the mini was like a hair dryer, then went on to say that the cup "looked mean but that lack of ABS and CC made it a step backwards in his opinion". He then refused to drive either of them and the rest of the review was test driving the other three cars (which the CTR won).
Snubbed by the Tiff...doesnt know a good thing if its staring him in the face.
Nippy white cup
Lol @ lack of ABS. I only ever see Tiff turning off safety features. Could have done with ABS when he collided with Mansell in the Touring Cars!

yer 5th gear was quite funny. showed my mum it cos had it on sky plus, told yer that CTR usually do that when they go round corners!! cant say shes too happy bout me gettin one now!
tiffs got a point tho, i reckon abs is well important on cars these days, makes hell of difference out where i live in middle of nowhere!! thats why my dad brought my lil sis a new clio instead of a 206 cos abs was standard
