    Test drove the FR, whihc is the one down from the Cupra, very good once the turbo kicks in, handling isn't a patch on mk1 clios imo.

    Thing i disliked was the fact that there is no feel to anything, you can't feel the road through the stearing, when i fisrt went to ut my foot on the clutch i almost put it through the floor lol, and you can't even feeel teh accelerator under your foot, not a drivers car imo

    good cars to go fast in a straight line... look OKAY and that's pretty much it... bit characterless and dull if you ask me...

    as regards performance I'd have thought the Willy on that spec would smash it

    0-60 7.2 apparantly, 180bhp stock but weight quite a bit I would imagine!

    Could be easily modded to silly power figures but would still be shit round corners.
