Those cars aren't small or medium sized. They are all large cars.
Just give it up and move on!
All of those are the smallest (or in Teslas case the medium size) four seater that manufacturer currently sells. Overall dimensions are now ignored apparently. So we are all good Just give it up and move on!

Oh burn, good one
Does it still hurt when you see people driving nice cars that they 'can't afford'?
As non-PH as this might be to say, it would have been nice to see more description of the practicality comparison.
I think it'd have to be the Meganne for me; it just seems to sum up how a hot hatch should be better than the others. The Merc and Focus are enormously impressive, but not particularly desirable for me. It's good to see that Ford have done such a credible job with the RS, though; I can quite see why someone would buy it.
I'm not really a hot hatch person though, so what I think doesn't matter much to the manufacturers.

I'd suggest the megane was badly driven then. There's a 90bhp difference after all.
More like 72bhp difference Megane 14.28
