I've driven a colt and was sturdy and felt well built...
I though t about the satria gti too...I quite like the looks and think it could be improved on easliy..
Go get a test drive and see what you think..
Can't remember what show on tv but they took it round a track in japan and it got good reviews if I rememebr correctly.

Point is Steve have YOU actually driven one?
I drove one around Silverstone, and it was excellent, the chassis was a lotus job and the engine 130bhp Mitsi engine screamed round to 9k. Out of the box it was very well suited to the track. I asked the question had they "played with it" the response was just better discs and pads.
Just enough body roll, whilst being stiff enough to give decent grip, engine revved easy and just loved to go.
I found it a real hoot to drive and would certainly like to have a go in one on the open road.

I haven't driven one or even been in one and I dont want to.
Look at it for a start. Its ugly.
Dont care how good a chassis it is or how well it handles. Its a Proton.
