TG - Hot hatch mega-test - hill climb video

Stock Polo GTI Struggles, but not bad in comparison to the Clio 200 as it gives away 12bhp.

Fantastic looking car, I love it. You can keep your French tat, I'd go for the Polo with a light remap every day of the week.

Isn't the Clio a fair bit heavier than the Polo, and also giving a lot away in torque??

Not fanboying, I love those little Polos! Goes bloody well.

Wonder why VAG haven't adopted the funny front suspension like the Clio/Megane/Focus? Hell, even Vauxhall are sticking it on their cars now. That's where all the difference is.
Sideways yo!
