Cars That Made The 90s - Part 3 - Hot Hatch
#hothatch #90shothatch #golfgti #renaultcliowilliams #fiestarsturbo #influx
In this episode of ‘Cars That Made The 90s’, we caught up with Sean, a proud Volkswagen Golf GTi 16v owner, Peter, the lucky owner of a rare Renault Clio Williams 3, and Dave, a Ford Fiesta RS Turbo fanatic.
The nineties was truly the era of the Hot Hatch. While the concept itself was born in the mid ‘70s with the Golf GTI, and the actual words made famous (or should that be infamous?) in the ‘80s with the introduction of many ‘originals’ like the Escort RS Turbo, Renault 5 GTT, Astra GTE and Peugeot 205 GTI.With these cars becoming more affordable, and with second and third generation models hitting the streets, the ‘90s is where the Hot Hatch went mainstream.

The Ferrari F40: Legend, Relic, Fantasy?
Переглядів 206 тис.6 місяців тому
The Ferrari F40 definitely goes down in history as the ultimate in Ferrari folklore. From faded posters on bedroom walls to Turbo Outlaw in the Sega-centric arcade, it’s embedded in our collective psyches. Ferrari set out to produce just 400 F40’s, but due to popular demand ended up building 1,311. Production of the road car continued until 1992, while race car versions continued to be built up...

    There's a lot of cheesy opinions from these owners, because everyone has the most nostalgia for the era they grew up in, and every generation will say that the cars of their youth were better, more connected, simpler etc. Personally I love 80's cars because manufacturers were adding turbos to everything so they were raw, crude and full of character. I love 90's cars because It's the peak of engineering before electronics completely took over, but they are reliable and still very approachable by the home mechanic. Modern hot hatches are too dull because you just point and squirt and let the traction control, automatic gearbox, and variable everything do it for you.

    • @jaysimpson6857
      @jaysimpson6857 Місяць тому

      I remember learning of the bhp figures of the Tomcat’s and being amazed. I think those being considered you have to respect the bhp, reliability and economy that modern manufacturers can squeeze out of four cylinder engines these days, it makes me wonder what they could achieve without emission and economy restrictions.

The car is running slight mods on 225bhp the weight to bhp ratio is superb though, I’ve left many a modern car for dust, only really got shown up once and that was a baby blue 20v fiat coupe turbo, I followed the car though and bought it 👍

    The Delorean was a car that begged its owners to put a better engine in it. The disappointment and controversy that surrounded the Delorean from 1980-1983 has now passed and the car has been claimed by another generation of fans, who have improved the vehicle significantly.

I had a fair bit to do with the IMP at that time Spending many hours on the Belgian Pav'e at MIRA. testing different suspension setups and tyre combinations as well as the body structure! I also had my design for the uprated dash in the MK3 IMP reach production!

    It’s a different world to what it was back in the 90’s. Todays times are squashed with many distractions and how the social Media is. Perhaps we will eventually live off grid without the hectic work loads of modern society.

    Definitely agree the 90s was so much better for cars and driving not many people could get loans or finance so people generally owned cars outright , the old weston super mare was a massive local cruising venue. Many cars used to congregate in the car parks and cruise the seafront .

    I had a terrible career decision that went terribly wrong. That led to six months at home (4 on garden leave) and two with the pressure of job hunting with a greatly reduced income. When the spring arrived, snow melted and the temperature crept up the first thing I did was ride my motorcycle for 2 hours straight in the sun. The freedom, feeling centred, focused on how great the Z900RS felt through the curves and the mindfulness was the escape and lift that I needed. I forgot about the stress, the guilt of what my family was experiencing because of me and the uncertainty. This video is incredibly inspiring and congratulations to all the ladies involved 😊

Last bike was a 2001 Triumph Sprint ST. I actually started much younger than most. My parents rode when my Mom was pregnant. You have reminded me how much I need this back in my life. I need to seriously look at at 3 wheelers. Nice video, thanks.

    I hate it when these people attach their psycosis with such a fun and light activity ....its true motorcycling does have positive effects on the way you feel but so does every fun activity you get a chance to do... Saying i ride to take my mind off everything else or I ride to cure my anxiety sounds so melodramatic . Keep it real gals.. motorcycling is about speed , freedom and a canvas you can design and decorate to suit and represent your taste and personality... its not a mental healt pill and it does not heal you if you have real psycological issues.... we cant expect Ted Bundy to start riding a motorcycle and whenever he felt a urge to kill some one he would jumo on his bikes drag knee through a few twisties and forget that he wanted to kill someone
