RS3 because 5 cylinders

Lancer because Ford Focus RS have bad brakes (100-0km/h in 50m).

I’ll take the Focus, preferably one with the front LSD. With or without it, though, it feels more, erm, focused than the opposition.

I chose the focus but the FQ screwed me up.

Mazda. I love the XM, but sorry.

Lan Evo X FQ400. Perhaps the X is the worst Evo, I prefer that. I like the turbolag.

I was almost going to vote for that Citroen, until I scrolled down and saw the Lincoln.

The AWD weapon is a pretty tough choice when one is brand picky. Ford have done a good job with the marketing and making the RS impressive but it just has too many fundamental drawbacks. Not that the others don’t have their own. I could pretend to claim that ultimately the Evo is still “the best at doing what it intended to do” but I think several people would laugh at me and also I’d be omitting the fact I’d rather jump off a cliff than possess an Audi or a Mercedes because I’m odd like that.

I’m a bit of a ford fanboy so focus RS it is.

The DS21 by a whisker. On its debut it wasn’t so much a car as a look into the future, more so than its successors.

The CX had big shoes to fill and so little space under the hood because of the failed Rotary attempts… F

The CX, but only the Gti

Let’s get some airtime! Would you rather drive…

A Baja Trophy Truck?

Or a Stadium Super Truck?

I’d take a Stadium Super Truck - but only just. The series it’s built for is burgeoning globally, and can be considered a sprint-format, closed-circuit tarmac racing equivalent to the Baja 1000 - complete with jumps.

The year is 1977 and you need something especially sexy. Which do you choose? For parity’s sake all are equipped with 2.0L Engines.



Fiat 132: DOHC I4, 112hp, RWD



Alfetta 2000, DOHC I4, 130hp, RWD (Transaxle)



Audi 100 Avant, SOHC I4, 112hp, FWD (Longitudinal)



BMW 520/6, SOHC I6, 122hp, RWD



Datsun 200L, SOHC I6, 97hp, RWD

Ford Granada, OHV V6, 90hp, RWD



Opel Rekord D 2000S, CIH I4, 100hp, RWD



Renault 20 TS, OHC I4, 109hp, FWD (Longitudinal)

Lancia Gamma 2000, DOHC Flat 4, 120hp, FWD (Longitudinal)



Peugeot 504 TI, OHV I4 (fuel injected), 105hp, RWD



Mercedes-Benz 200, SOHC I4, 94hp, RWD



Toyota Corona Mark II/ Cressida, SOHC I4, 97hp, RWD



Citroen CX2000, OHV I4, 102hp, FWD (Transverse)

There are a few missing candidates, such as the Rover SD1 (I really wanted to include something british) and Volvo 244. Unfortunately neither was available with a 2.0L Engine in 1977. Yes I know I am again stretching the rules of this game. Oh the choices!
