        The above Golf has to be the most iconic hot hatches of all time. Im not a huge fan of them but they spearheaded the 'Hot Hatch'.

          @tmg:

          If we're talking iconic hot hatches….

          I have a mk2 Golf G60 Edition One. Modified 200bhp.

          Also an Audi B8 S4 Avant which is the family car although it doesnt hang around with ~400bhp.

            OK, it's not a hot hatch, but the VW XL1 is one of my favourite small cars.

                The wife is in the market later this year for a "posh hatch", which to choose?

                Mercedes A Class

                Or

                Audi A3

                Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

                  I recently traded in a Mercedes B class (same platform as the A and i drove a few A courtesy cars) and I was not impressed.
                  Drove badly. Ride and handling poor. Interior plastics poor. Cheap feeling car.
                  An Audi is better built, no doubt.

                      That's was my thoughts too, but the wife says that the Merc is prettier  😢

                              Considering the three of us together would have a striking resemblance to the three titted woman from Total Recall, I have zero reason to value your opinion on attractiveness  😃

                                  @Megatron1505 you know what. the merc is way better.

                                  i was in the market for a car 2 years ago, and i test drove the a3 quattro and the s3. didn't get either because i went and got a JDM to built a 1 off MPS3/Mazdaspeed3. either way, my mate recently bought a a45 AMG 4matic. and i tell you the car's brilliant. the audi is better built but the chassis of the quattro is too front bias where as the A class has a better balance.

                                  i'm probably the bmw knob here but consider the 1 series. because it's the only RWD hatch in it's class and you're always gonna have fun in a RWD  😉

                                  @organisys gotta love the BBS rims you got on there and the b8 s4 avant is a sick car. i'm disappointed they don't do the B7 rs4 in sedan form anymore.

                                    Cheers @louisbosco , Pam doesn't really like BMW's but I'll get her to look at one and maybe test drive all three.

                                        ^which markets offer a 1-series hatch?

                                        In NA we only have the X1, which is no longer RWD option.

                                            hahaha you'd never know. 😛 a RWD is always more fun to drive regardless of skills. makes the school run just a little more exciting..

                                            @Appfaff i guess most markets do. europe/australia and asia. the US market for hatchbacks isn't there yet. it's the same with audi's rs3 which was only available recently in the sedan form and same with MB which doesn't have the a45 amg hatch but the CLA45 amg.
