Not too clued up on hit hatches but iv heard good things about the mps and the cupra- love the btcc kit on them
Never been a focus fan even in ST guise, never done it for me
How about an S3? Always liked the look of them, they look sporty but a bit more grown up than others in contrast to the boy racer btcc leons (which I also like )
They'll have that bit more quality too
