Hi people,
Hoping I could get help from you guys with fast(ish) Hatchbacks.
So basically looking at getting another car soon and want a hot hatch.
I've been looking round on the Web for different makes and models but I want a wider variety of what I can find already and hoping you's could help me.
The three things I'm looking for is a preferably a 5 door hatchback, 0-60 in under 8 seconds and as a bonus have a turbo. Im not really bothered by budget as it's just to give me more ideas on what I already have in my head.
Hope to hear from yous soon.

The Fiesta ST is now available in a 5 door.

The Fiesta is being replaced next year so a lease would be a better idea.

Thanks for the reply, that wouldnt be a bad choice, the only thing is I'd prefer to own the car so I can do some little mods to it, not sure I want a brand new car as I most probably wouldn't keep it longer than a year.

welcome to PH. before you post any further try you should probably learn which section of the forum you should post in, not just click on the first thing you see and make a topic. this essentially should be in the 'car buying' section.

Thanks for the idea guys.
Got to be honest think i might have to look at the megane. See how much room is in the back and also take a look at the a3.

I find the back seats in my car a little miserable tbh. I do love my rs250 cup though

Focus ST with the 2.5t Volvo engine, spacious, quick and fun to drive, there will be plenty of choice well within budget too.

You'll need the left over cash for the fuel bills!

We have a Mazda3 MPS, the Mk2 version. It is a truly capable car, great for the family (it is my wife's DD) and does everything well.

Spec is great for the price you will pick one up for, and much more advanced that the opposition. Proper LSD, DI turbo engine, focus chassis so the suspension is sorted, Bose sounds, steerable bi xenons.

And they are VERY tuneable, when looking we visited BBR and went out in a demonstrator they had for sale, just over 400hp, TBH it was a bit much overwhelming the traction at 70mph at tip in!

One for thought smile

I spent months looking around, and ended up with an Octavia VRS 230 - ex demo with almost every optional extra, 11 months old with 5k miles on, for a smidge over £18.5k.

Should do everything I want a 5 door hatch to do.

It won't be the most exciting car to drive I know, but not bad by any means. Hoping a remap will wake it up a bit.

Damned with faint praise?
