Woohoo!

2010 Top Gear Awards: full winners list - BBC Top Gear

Can't wait till mine arrives!!

[masev]

Top Gear have just accepted the fact that the R is just too good! Something us R owners already knew long ago

Ha! In 2001, I bought the 200sx - which was Motor Magazine's Performance Car of the Year.

Now in 2010, I've bought Top Gear's Hot Hatch of the Year.

I have made the right choice.

The 200SX shape blew me away when it released. Very modifiy-able and solid as a stand alone model too. So some good choices so far.

I am loving the R as well. Seems to be worth the wait, almost.

Very happy it got the TopGear award! Those guys have driven everything!

so that would be the same for the audi s3 then lol

its the winner because of price range and bang for buck, as the s3 is too expensive as a new car

[Corey_R]

Isn't the R slightly more than the S3 in the UK?

It is also probably to do with the fact the R is a new release for this year, where as the S3 has been out for a while.
I know that some Aus mag's only allow entries for new models in that year for their awards.
