I am re watching an older episode of TopGear and they mentioned what car manufactures that actually have made a lot of really good cars.
So who would you suggest?

Yeah, Peugeot is a good nominee, I've driven plenty which I liked. The old early 1990s 405 was a favourite of mine with it's superb handling and refinement inside.
Forgot about the 405. Didn't that have a turbo charged Mi16 in it?
Pretty certain it (the Mi16) was a natural breather. 160bhp from a 1905cc engine is quite an achievement, especially for the era!!!!!
Correct the MI16 was NA :bigsmile: and was considered to be one of if not the best handling cars of all time.
I'm thinking Ford :amuse:
^^ :embarrest:.........You cheeky devil.......
I was thinking along the lines of some of the more iconic models that they produced; the Escort including RS versions, Sierra including RS versions, Capri, Cortina, Granada, Mondeo, KA, Fiesta, Focus and even that trusty road horse the Transit van. I would be very surprised, if at some point that no one on here had not owned or at least driven one of these cars.
I just goggled that and have to agree.I have never understood the Ford love, in 1972 you could buy a Mk1 Escort RS 2000 that had a single over head cam engine producing 100 bhp, with a 4 speed gearbox.
Or at the same time you could buy a Fiat 124 sport coupe with a 1.6 twin cam engine with two twin 40 down draught webers and a 5 speed gearbox producing 108bhp
I know which one I would go for.
certainly FORD is the BESTI'm thinking Ford :amuse:
