seat cupra, there is no cleverer purchase at the moment. True , won't attract girls until they are sat in , but hey if you rely on cars to get girls ..... good for you.
Looks OK on the outside but the interior is a bit cheap and bland, also it sits third on the VAG league table of desirability... one place above Skoda.

Ok, you win (I know it's so important for you BMW punters).
BTW I know you don't care about it (English, spelling, that tulip) but your mention of Clarkson hating the "roaster" did make me smile. But you still win, because you must.
Cool, that`s settled then
I don`t have to win, I jsut always do.
Stir stir
As my final word on this, make sure you all keep out of the right lane (the BMW lane)

I think that (whilst I'm not Clarkson's biggest fan by any means) most people would take his word over the late (and not missed by me at all) Jade Goody (who incidentally drove a Bentley and has therefore gone up very slightly in my estimation).
OK let's see;
Hard roof and an ugly backside. Some would say it is a beautiful car
The traction control light flickers constantly, suggesting that the suspension is so stiff the rear wheels are actually airborne half the time. BS - if you can`t drive it properly it may do that, drive it properly and it doesn`t
It lurches and pitches and is generally pretty horrid. Takes a little while to get used to(like one hour or less), but it`s a machine for driving hard - when you do this it comes into it`s own
The brakes that are too sharp Rubbish - the brakes are just awesome. They feel sharp at first but you soon get used to it and handling the immense braking power is easy and fun.
The clutch that requires practice Rubbish, a little practice maybe but it isn`t difficult
The steering system [has] been toughened up — but not enough — and you’re left with something rather underwhelming.
Which of those drawbacks would any sane buyer see as a virtue, then, Jade?
Jade, no, those who demand an exciting drive and a challenging drive - one that rewards the driver when it all comes together at speed.
I win
PS He hated the Roaster also I believe but got all excited about it when he took it to a race track. Did he do that with the Coupe, a car more dialled in to such use? No.
Now Plato, he`s worth listening to.
Of course, motoring experts who drive the worlds best cars or the opinion of you.
Meeeeeeee, because I don`t feel the need to try to be contraversial to justify earning £220kpa for a newspaper column while also trying to recruit chavs into a fan base to further propel a career in BS.
you can tell the quality of a person but those they like to quote. Clarkson, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Please don`t quote Jady Goody next for gawds sake.
