Read what Steve Sutcliffe has to say in this week's Autocar. He is an awesome driver and has basically said it is the best hot hatch of all time. He can't say too much at the moment, but is clearly bursting to tell all. I have 10p that says it's better than any Subaru/Evo/Cosworth and you'll all be eating your words.

Well I'm sorry, but if you can't pull out in time then don't pull out. How bout pull out without putting your foot down. Its quite possible.
I should know about this, I have a 172. You just need to tread more carefully in the wet. Why should you ever need to do ***** out acceleration in the wet?
You should drive to the conditions of the road.
I dont care if you have 900bhp in FWD you dont actually have to use all of them.

It has done an 8min 15sec lap of the 'ring' so cant handle that bad. Maybe the new diff is better than the last RS
