1984 Peugeot 205 GTi

Kinja'd!!!

1984 Ford Escort XR3

Kinja'd!!!

1984 Volkswagen Golf GTI

I’d daily the Peugeot because it’s a Peugeot, I’d track the XR3 because it’s unique, and I’d burn the Golf. Choose wisely, Oppo.

Step 1: replace that Americanised GTI by a proper one.

I burn the Golf without question.
 The rest is a tough one, since I only want the 205.
I’d say DD the pug and track the Escort, since I’d spend more time driving the 205.

DD Peugeot because awesome Frenchness, track the GTI because body roll, burn the XR3 because god it’s awful looking.

Burn the Escort

Track and daily the 205 GTi

Sell the Golf GTi.

The 205 is the best car of the three, both to daily and to track. Best protected against rust as well, parts are easier to get than the Ford (and maybe compared to the Golf as well) and it’s probably the most reliable of the three. The Golf is popular, so I’d sell that. The Escort is an also ran. I might be biased though, I own a 205 GTi (and a 205 CTi, and an early 205 base model)

Track the Pug because they’re a riot, daily the GTI because they’re also a lot of fun and hard to kill, burn the Ford because I guess I have to burn something.

Your choice is correct, but I’d probably alternate daily driving and tracking both the Pug and the Ford because they’re both so damn cool.
