In response to the best hot hatch ever thread.

This is bottom of the hot hatch pile for me:



Terrible weezy 8v engine, poor to drive and questionable reliability and build quality.

Fiesta XR2i with the 1.6 CVH.

Not very hot and not very good.

Owned one.

Did Ford improve it with the 1.8 Zetec engine ?
I had an XR2i 16v, I loved it. I remember fitting dual ARB's on the rear which made it nice and playful. Didn't have huge power but felt torquey as hell in such a light body.

The ZX 16V was brilliant!
