182 - 49 but then I’ve been driving it since I was 34! Other cars have come and gone but this one is a keeper.

:O I bet that's a pain in the wet!

I'd love to see that hook up and take off though! Must be insane.

It's hilarious (but dangerous) in the wet - the TC settings cause it pop and bang and spit flames when it looses traction - even in the higher gears!

Wouldn't have thought it was that much, 180 BHP?

Debatable as to whether it is a hatch, but I'm 60 and have a BMW Z4 Coupe.

But until early 2018 I had an E46 325ti Compact as a daily, which was definitely a hatch!

Maybe I should have replaced it with a 130i. rolleyes

43 and still driving my 02 plate Audi A3 1.8T sport (was a hot-tish hatch in the day) had it nearly 16 years now, very solid car interior is like new with its classic rhino skin leather lol. I wanted the S3 when I got it but couldn't afford it at the time, currently eyeing up a 16/17 plate S3 think its time for something new will keep the A3 though.

Never you mind

Boxster is definitely not a hatch of any description.
