Pug the most fun.

Escort almost a classic if you can find a nice one.

Calibra, if the arches have gone and there's more life in the engine

I'd say the calibra's are the best value for money, got mine for 1.3K and it had 80K on the clock with full cream heated leather. A lot of car for the mony IMO.

106 GTi's are nice tho

I'm biased but 106 everytime!!

0-60 in 8.7 LMAO at Peugeot's book figures, done with 2 passengers, half a tank of fuel and a wank driver. Try 0-60 under 8 all day long.

Calibra: Yes - Good Engine and superior build quaility compared with the other two
Escort: Defo No - Its a Ford, need i say more
Pug: On the fence - Its quick but its French which means un reliable and poor build quality.

The 106GTI get my vote simply because I think the othe two are ugly old sheds. Not saying I think the 106 looks mint but it the nicest and I bet you it's the most fun
