Having just seen the pic of all the great hot hatches, got me wondering if the Willy is still King of Hot Hatches, even with the new run of motors like the CTR, Clio Trophy etc etc.
Personally i think it still is. Its back to basics for me. No traction control, ABS. Its all about driver feel, and being in tune with the car. Surely thats why it was Evo's 6th best drivers car ever.
What do you guys think?

Were not talking about what was the first real Hot Hatch, were talking about the King of Hot Hatches!!!
Willy all day long. Although Clarkson (cretin) rates the 106....i guess he never really got to drive the Willaims. They ought to do a King of Hot hatches around their test track. A standard steed of each eaxmple.
AWESOME image comes to mind....
