Ka
1.3 -Split in
many minds whether to love or hate them, Ford Ka's can prove drop dead gorgeous
when styled. Not massive on power with 58 bhp and 0-60 in 14.3 secs, but they
have loads of kit to change them dramatically. Fiesta
Mk2 1.6 XR2 -Classic example of an affordable car
which has plenty of kit and is easily maxed. With 96 bhp and a 0-60 of 9.3 secs
it remains very popular. Fiesta Mk3
1.6 XR2i -Nippy little hot hatch produces 110 bhp and does 0-60 in
8.9 secs. Nice car to mod at an affordable price. Fiesta Mk3
RS 1800i -Bigger brother of the above has 133 bhp and 0-60 in 8.0
secs. Remaining dearer and more rarer than then XR2i it still is a great car to
mod. Fiesta Mk3
1.6 RS Turbo -This is the top performance Fiesta, with 133 bhp and
0-60 in 7.9 secs. Its basically a XR2i with a turbo bolted on. Its easily
tunable engine can turn this into a stormer. Fiesta
Zetec S 1.6 -The modern Fiesta is starting to make its entrance
slowly. It has great handling and with 102 bhp it provides a 0-60 of around 10
secs. Over the next few years we will see more and more examples of this
car. Escort Mk4
XR3i 1.6 -With loads of gear available its no surprise this car is
still a favourite. 105 bhp and 0-60 in 9.5 secs means it can look good and
cruise good. Escort Mk4
RS Turbo 1.6 -This cult classic remains highly tunable and highly sort
after. It has thousands of products available for it and 132 bhp provide a 0-60
of 9.2 secs. It still remains a top moddin choice. Puma
1.7-Voted
top hot-hatch in Max-Power in 98-99 this car combines sporty looks with top
handling. It does 0-60 in 8.6 secs with 123 bhp providing the
power. Focus
Zetec S -The future heir to the throne. More products are
currently being produced in America for the Focus than any other car, including
the Civic. Becoming more popular by the day this model has 128 bhp with 0-60 in
9.3 secs. Focus
ST170-A quick
version of the Focus it can knock out 170 bhp with a 0-60 time of 7.2 secs. This
focus is not only quick off the mark but also has great mid-range
power. Focus
RS -A strong
claim for the king of hot hatches. Its 212bhp and 0-60 of 6.4 secs means it
challenges the Type-r very strongly for the hot hatch crown. Escort
Cosworth -This car remains one of the most
desirable cars in the moddin world. As easily tunable as many of its Japanese
counter-parts, its 227 bhp and 0-60 in 5.7 secs provides awesome
performance. Sapphire Cosworth R-WD -Powered by 204 bhp through the back
wheels gives this monster a 0-60 of 5.8 secs. Just like the Escort Cosworth its
remains a very desirable car. Sapphire
Cosworth 4x4 -With more power but less speed as the R-WD this 4x4
still remains fast. Its 220 bhp produces a 0-60 of 6.6
secs. |
