Ford Focus St 3

Vauxhall Astra VXR
Seat Leon Cupra
BMW 330ci

Anyone any experience with the integras, sure the are a couple in my area
Audi S3

Renault Megane R26 has got to be in that list, best of the hot hatches, only problem is the debatable looks, you either love them or hate them

For £15k you would get one of the last ones. Full leather (or half alcantara), xenons, recaro seats, climate control, Maybe Satnav on later ones. They are quite well equipped as standard.

dc5 for me, friend has a e46 330ci and its a great all round car with a good engine and performance but its slightly bland, common and lacks that special something.
i think a focus rs would be my 2nd choice closely followed by an astra vxr as i loved the 150bhp sri diesel i test drove.
do the veccy vxrs come into your price range?

IMO they are very subtle compared to the astra say, some people may think this is a bad thing but i think its a plus!

have looked at S3's but wouldnt be as nice as mates 3.2 quatro sline
have looked at s4 but to expensive at the moment in time.
Think i am going to try get to the garage for a test drive of the VXR and St3
maybe try get a shot of an RS aswell
would say its probably between those 3, others are a bit bland tbh
