Probably the easiest poll ever! Gti got my vote, she rules the (budget) performance-hatch segment!

Very easy poll, Focus is awful, Astra isn't sporty at all (the VXR should have been used) and the Gti is stunning

No contest. VW Golf GTI for me followed by the Ford. Not crazy about the Opel at all.

It's personally a close call for me. The ST in MANY cases looks better than the GTi but the slanting back of the ST destroys it's chances against the more practical GTi. So, I'd choose the GTi for this.
