Which hot hatches would you stash away in your garage?

Alfa 145 Cloverleaf for me! What a brilliant car. So underrated. Lee Roberts

Tipo 2.0 Sedicivalvole! Proper beastie and 16valve sounds soooooooo cool when you say it in Italian! Ian Parker I’ll have a Fiat Uno Turbo if a good one could be found. Cameron Thompson

If you’re talking fun it’s a Daihatsu Charade Gtti. If it’s an investment, then I’d choose a Pug 205 GTI 1.9. Gray Cook

Escort RS2000 - As with all RS Fords, the value will rocket. Nearly bought one a couple of years ago, in very good condition for £3k. The same would be double that now. Malcolm Williams

Peugeot 306 GTI-6. No question. The greatest hot hatch of all time, bar none. Simon Davies

I’m a Vauxhall man, but I’d have the Fiesta XR2I. Grant Warren

The Volkswagen Lupo GTI. I’ve had mine 13 years and I can’t see me ever wanting to sell it! Martin Wright About to buy a Rover 220 coupé. I don’t expect it will appreciate much but they seem like fun. Stewart Simms

Citroën ZX 2.0 16V. Will be great fun in about 10 years’ time when most people have forgotten about them. Great chassis! Matt Gadfield
