    Curborough isn't a very K20 friendly track, you're constantly between running out of road before you can get third gear into the power band or running out of rev range in second gear before the braking points. The civic might have done a lot better against the others on a different track but yeah, after taking my EP3 there I wasn't surprised at this result.

    I cant believe how quickly this channel has gained traction, attracting full on celebrities now. Also i love the absurdity of the little Skoda.

    I just love how the stig is like, let’s get crackin’ and Tavarish instantly has three excuses.
    Btw I think Alex is wrong, the Civic R is a looker. And the megane is well.. just a French car 🫣😆

    The Megane RS is such a nice car to drive around corners! Had one in mint condition about 9 years ago, and if it wasn`t for the really crappy interior quality and overly expensive parts, I think I`d still be having fun with it nowadays.
    Awesome collab!

    I'd love to see a revisit to this challenge with about 1000 pounds invested to improve them a bit. I assume Tavarish's time over here is limited, but that can be accounted for.

      Honda's civic type R's are usually a very good choice but unfortunately in my opinion this particular one is the worst they made . In fact I believe this is slower than the model it replaced...

    • @JLneonhug
      @JLneonhug ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As above, this fn2 gen was lagging behind the competition at the time, just so heavy (albeit looks v nice), even the fabia smoked it lol.
      Fyi fabia still does about 30-35mpg when round the track ...

    • @HighlandViking78
      @HighlandViking78 ปีที่แล้ว

      @callumcurtis15 it's slower only due to being heavier and safer, the previous models are like biscuit tins on wheels, fn2 is so underrated

    • @HighlandViking78
      @HighlandViking78 ปีที่แล้ว

      @JLneonhug not really a fair comparison, though, 3 totally different cars, and that fabia is modified and tuned and would have beaten any type r model until the fk2, put a standard fabia against those 2 and it'd get pumped. Fn2 is so underrated, I recently started a TH-cam channel in the hopes of boosting mines and getting it some appropriation it deserves 🤙

    • @JLneonhug
      @JLneonhug ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@HighlandViking78 nah, the fabia probably had a chip tune and straight through circa 170bhp (original 130bhp). You can't get much more on a fabia without getting into bigger turbos, injectors, etc. Fn2 should have been 200bhp out the box, and 225 obviously should have been 225. If anything fabia was the glorified shopping trolley, handles like one too even with suspension mods...
      Whereas fn2 and 225 was supposed to be manufactured to be capable on track. I put it down to age and abuse from previous owners :)

  • @MravacKid

    Best looking? The Skoda, by far. It's the only thing that won't be dated in a few years.
    And thank you so much for this video, now I feel a lot better about my 2007 Golf 2.0 TDI which is in great condition that I bought for 5000 Euro. :)
