Top Ten 80's and 90's non-VW hot hatches?

Recommended Posts

didn't notice the under 150bhp :shock: whoops!!! :D

 

How about the mk1 and mk2 fiat uno turbo's then they were under 150 in standard form not my cup of tea but still fairly quick!!!

Lucky europeans!!!!!!!! I live in

the US ant the only escort ford

sells is slow and we may have got

1 turbo. Not that I'm complaining

about ford (I'd rather drive my old

Diesel Rabbit). But you get all the

cool cars; Ren. Pug. Lotus, damn.

Oh but my fav

is my 86 Mazda RX-7, 1.3 rotary,

fuel injection, about 145bhp, and

REAR WHEEL DRIVE!! (Brodies are fun.)

:turn-l:

 

Difference is that you guys can afford to pick up excellent old V8 powered trucks & cars whereas over here you have to be a millionaire to keep something like that on the road!! :)

I will stick to the old school classics of the Dagenham type.

 

1)Ford mkII Escort RS 2000. :)

 

2) Escort Harrier 8)

 

3) i know its a bit older but who could resist a Escort Twin cam(lotus) :evil:

 

That will do for now as i spent most my time passing everything on the bike :lol:

ps...........seat ibiza's are vw-group so don't qualify :wink:

 

The original Seat Ibizas weren't, but I s'pose you're right on that.

true......but then again you did say the 2nd seat ibiza's :wink: .........and if i remember rightly the hot-hatch first ibiza's were the 1.5sxi and the 1.7 sportline and i'm pretty sure the sportline was one of the first(first generation ibiza's with vw-group input).....although when the ibiza was first on the go they made a big deal about having "system porsche" engine

My favourites are:

1. Corrado (any) the muscular looks are unique no other car compares to the styling.

2. 205 Gti i had a 1.6 and the handling was superb very nimble and responsive, i had a limited edition sorrento green with full leathers as standard, power steering and black carpet.

3. Series one love the factory look

4. Golf clippers, doesnt everyone go through that phase :)
