Which would you chose and why? No, there isn't a Skoda on there as they don't have anything which meets the requirements......

Cheap to buy

Cheap to insure

Over 100bhp per ton

The Fiat Panda. A better looking car, in my opinion, and i don't really like any of the others.

as much as it pains me to recommend a fiat, the panda 100hp would be my choice. I only hope the fix it again tomorrow horror has now vanished.

Daihatsu Charade GTti

800 Kg.. 100bhp.. 993cc 3 cylinder turbo

It was made for you!

I would choose a swift, because they look quite funky and also a 3 door version of the new fabia.

It has to be the panda in the dark metallic grey colour - it looks cracking and should be a laugh to drive.

I'd also like a remapped 1.3TDI panda , but you can't get one in the right colours :(

Don't know the price/specs but how about the new Twingo? Isn't there a small petrol turbo in that?

I have to admit the panda does look quite good so much I considered one when they first came out the 100bhp one looks good in red with a white stripe.

Panda 100 HP all the way, the wife has one and it's just immense fun, but still a practical and capable car.

I'm sure there are good deals on the Mitsibushi Colt they do it with a 1.5 turbo petrol.

0% finance at one time and they won't go wrong!

Micra Sport SR...more practical than the Panda, better steering feel than the Punto, more civilised than the Suzuki, quicker than the Mazda...

Plus it's a Micra so you avoid unwanted attention.

Fiat Panda shaves it for me over the Swift

The lack of pare in the Swift puts me off.

Panda 100HP for me too. Like the way it drives and also looks a bit different to the usual supermini too

Do like the look of the Swift and new Mazda 2, but not driven either of them.

Swift for me.

I think they're cracking little cars, and look fantastic.

I'm sure there are good deals on the Mitsibushi Colt they do it with a 1.5 turbo petrol.

Did look at the CZT but discounted due to running costs especially on the fuel front and the service intervals.

Did like the fact that it is quite light and is easilly mappable to 180+

I'd go for the Swift - much more solid than the Panda and the interior is so much nicer. When I looked at Fiats recently (granted not the 100hp) the interior build quality just seemed poor TBH. I'd also worry about Fiat reliability and customer service.

The Suzuki seemed like a proper car and was actually pretty quick - handled well too

I'm sure there are good deals on the Mitsibushi Colt they do it with a 1.5 turbo petrol.

They drive like the turbo's missing though - I was very unimpressed :(

I'd go for the GP sporting.... much quicker than the panda, and better equipped, cheaper, faster, and bigger, than the swift sport...... that 1.4t-jet is a nice engine too , one tuner claims they are all giving out 140bhp , even though they are supposed to be 120 (I don't believe them) has almost the same emmisions as the diesel version I drive, and gives 40+ mpg.....

but then I'm biased :P

The Swift... cause I like the look of it...

Another vote for the Swift.

I have driven a non sport 1.5 and they go quiet well.

Panda or what about the 500?

a swift,the wife has one and its awesome,its not even the sport:D

The Swift for me as well - I saw a mint Black one today and thought it looked really good.

Panda. Would say swift but it only uses 98ron and the service intervals are low.

Swift looks good but my best mate has a Mazda 2 Sport. Cracking little car and a great engine. Plus it is really light and you notice it when driving it about, handles very well indeed.
