    Saw that coming a mile away. A 9n GTI isn't that great to drive. A similarly aged Fiesta XR4 might be slower but is a whole lot more interesting to drive, IMHO.

    The Golf is in a different class, so its a bit rude to compare them. But even then a Golf is a whole lot more clinical and boring compared to a more energetic Focus XR5, 3 MPS, Meganne RS etc.

    I'd much rather spend every day in a Golf or Polo compared to the competition though, as I find the total package more important than a single attribute. Not everyone is the same, is why we have choice. Yay

    Totally agreed! the overall package that comes with a golf or polo, or any euro in IMO is much better then any other car on the road.

    I didnt think you could just whack on a downpipe and drive away without a tune.

    Also, the 9n3 is a very engaging car, having followed some around lakeside i can vouch for that.
    Stock it would be a bit tame I guess.

    Most elaborate and professionally choreographed VWW troll ever. Funky little car, but don't blame him for thinking it's a bit boring. They're good at what they do, being a surprise package zippy shopping cart that flys under the radar, and I like them for that. Moog was right though, should have gone an R32 barpp, that shoeless nutter has good taste.

    I'd challenge MCM to find a Euro that Marty finally agrees has soul, on a budget.

    Really impressed at how well known MCM is becoming, I've had fairly unexpected people quote it. Can't wait for the next episode, really enjoy the humour and down-to-earthness too.
