VX is definately a Marmite car - personally I love the looks, they remind me of the pictures I used to draw as a kid when 'designing' (

) a sports car
as to Q cars - I had one (well as close as I could get at the time...)
Masda 323F 1.8GTi - flip up lights version

like this one
according to the specs, 140bhp, 0-60 8.2s top speed 120 (sound familiar?

)
but one fine and sunny day on an unrestrcited road, the speedo showed 135...
SUCH a sleeper!
Looked like a bog standard 5 door family car, but blimey it could shift!
