Leon Cupra 300 - 29.

Insurance is only £290 as well, surprised the hell out of me when I got it at 28, cheapest car I've ever insured.

sorry but that's an instant fail for the world's worst ever attempt at a hot hatch!
(I used to have one it was crap in every measurable respect - handling, gearing, suspension, seats etc - utterly rubbish attempt at a hot hatch).

The anti- collision sensor is supposed to bring down insurance prices significantly.

Cupra 300, 25

Ah well that's useful since mine's been fked since November 2017, one day just failed and they tried charging me to recalibrate it instead of fixing it under warranty so I've just left it off.

As far as I could tell, when it did work, it was just an over zealous warning about speed/distance to the car in front rather than any safety device that slowed/stopped the car.

I always thought the worst hot hatch ever was the MK3 golf GTi with 115bhp.

If you’re that bothered about what others think, sell it now and buy something you feel less self-conscious in?

Love mk5 GTI’s that’s the sweet spot for me.

A lady friend of mine has a 57 plate 5 door in United grey and its mint. She’s 40!
