General What is the fasted an HGT has ever accelerated?

I second that last comment! Although the Uno Turbo ie is still a legend in it's own right and I believe only killed off by a second by the French Beast of that era the Mk2 Renault 5 GT Turbo(7 secs standard 5 chipped). Puegout 205 GTi was a contender but from I remember in my old college days you were either for the Uno, Renault or Peugout camp,VW Golf's or Escort Cosworth.
Of course I was rootin for the Uno Turbo camp every time

I have to conclude that all pretty much all hot hatches from the 80/early 90's are stupidly fun yet horrifically unreliable :bang:

Been there with Uno and 205 friend has a R5 GTT awaiting fixing, Nova GSI with HG gone umm sure there are more broken at the moment

Anyway digressing slightly now

Once or twice but I prefer it when some burk in a BMW style car goes to over take and can't . The look on the numpty's face is usually priceless .

Ive drove a few HGT's and I must say I feel like there lacking go for what you expect . Doens't feel much quicker than my 1.4 16v Sporting.

I own a standard HGT and agree with that. They certainly like their petrol for the bit extra performance.
