    as an american who loves hot hatches, you've put me on to a very special citroen in a clean color, and what a satisfying story hope the owner enjoys it well

    It’s so easy now to get roped into the numbers game with who has the most HP or the fastest 0-60, But every time I drive my ZR I remember why I love the raw driving experience you get from these 90s/00s hot hatches.
    No driving aids no turbos just a revvy N/A engine with a manual gearbox and all the induction noise you could ever need 😂

    Ah the classic estate car from the 90s....not for carrying wardrobes though, for blitzing round housing estates at 2am 😛😛

    Nice video Jamie. I agree with something that you say quite frequently on the channel. The french for all there faults do know how to put a bloody good hot hatchback together. Over the years they have spoilt us. Owned many french hot hatches over the years, they just have something about them and the saxo vtr I had I had a fantastic time owning. Shame that they have nearly completely disappeared now.

    Always loved a french hot hatch and ended up buying a Saxo vtr 03plate for my first car yes the insurance is silly and it’s not the smartest first car but love the dam thing part of the family

    Now the chavs are starting to grow up, these will become the next RS Turbo.
    Back in the day, we were all cutting about in fast Fords or vauxhalls. These came out and came with 12 months of free insurance, so the new kid's started buying them on mass and on finance, which at the time was a new thing to us. This was the height of the Max Power era, but that was never really my thing.
