Renault Clio 182 Trophy evo Diary

July 28, 2013 by Mr Butterscotch Leave a Comment

The Renault Clio 182 Trophy has long been held as a hero car. It has a perky standard injection engine and brilliant driving dynamics that, whilst with ‘only’ 182 horses, will always put a massive grin on your face. See why this is one of Harry Metcalfe’s favourite cars in this video from evo.

Fifth Gear Mazda3 MPS Review

September 4, 2010 by Mr Butterscotch Leave a Comment

In this video, Vicki Butler-Henderson tackles the might and power of the Mazda3 MPS – one of the fastest hot hatchbacks around. As you all know, I’m a massive fan of the hot hatch. A car that isn’t too large, has plenty of power and the ability to car a reasonable amount of stuff in […]
