I don't think he's talking about the car when he talks about putting things in the rear of his hot hatch.

Proof that he's a faggot



"There are so many odd angles and protrusions"

"many in the industry agree that the absolute limit for a FWD car is 220hp"

"mountain of torque dicks which wrenches the steering wheel from your hands"

"caused by the fact that the front wheels have to stop and steer plus handle torque"

"could you gas me harder... go a bit faster...you know I can handle it" <- wtf

"really this is just a muscle car"

"a 207hp GTI would do me fine"

"if you're a family man, and you like muscle cars, I think this is a compromise for you"

I recall an MS3 on Top Gear, but they don't call it that over in Europe-it had some other name, and it had a few less HP.

Clarkson liked the ms6, but I only vaguely remember Hammond driving the ms3, but I could be wrong. Fifth gear twat loved the ms3.

Thats weird, I recently watched through all of Top Gear on Netflix (series 2-15), and Clarkson did like the MS6, but I don't remember seeing anything about an MS3. IIRC the web review of the MS3 on the TG web site wasn't so stellar.

He's disliked the Vauxhal Astra VXR, the Focus RS, and there was atleast 1 other small Fwd car that had over 240hp and he hated it too.

I guess the MPS is a bit different than our MS3, if her stats are correct. On the other hand, 21,000 GBP is about $33,600. Looks like we should all be shipping our cars to UK instead of trading them in when the time comes.

These pussies need to get off the torque steer bandwagon. At no point has it felt like my steering wheel was being ripped from my hands, shit that would be fun.

I never saw the review, but torque steer is minimal in this car considering the power.

Anyone who mentions torque steer in this car only does so after "launching" it, something it was not really ment to do. You go WOT from a roll, no torque steer.

Well. A comparison of the MS3 and GTI, and not single mention of torque steer, or anything that is too obviously bullshit. Quite a good and focused video, IMO, but I felt it was just a tad dumbed down to avoid keeping it too long.

Haha, you can see the cloud of soot behind the car during the 1/4 mile runs. This video sums up the GenPu ownership experience better than any other I've seen.

I'm surprised they didn't bitch about torque steer more than once.

That review is spot on with my own observations. Great find.

I admittedly like the GTI's refinement, suspension, and power curve. Predicted reliability and interior volume turned me away from it.

Never seen the Motorweek one. I remember watching the fifth gear one, though. 2.5L engine? WTF?

How about those 108 traps stock? Must be a 10% grade on that straight!
