S3, R32, although you'd have to get rid of a lot to make them light.

If you want light hot hatch for track then Clio 172/182 IMO, not independent rear, but a great handling car and dirt cheap.

dint they review it on an old top gear and compared it to the new one, outcome was the same in almost every way apart from the new one was crap (in Jeremy's eyes) because of the rear window

Some sort of Civic is looking handy then.

Do you get a 1.8 vti at all? What's in those 5 door hatchbacks?
