		<description><![CDATA[Ford is full of surprises. After launching the RS version of Focus, which was claimed to be the best hot hatch on the market, they go further. Focus RS is still the most powerful compact car and best handling FWD car on the roads&#8230; ever, and that just wasn&#8217;t enough. They decided to make something [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I would like to write a little review of 2009 Renault Megane Coupe. As I noticed there isn&#8217;t much noise over the Internet about this car. You have Toyota, Honda, Fiat and VW everywhere in the media, magazines, youtube, forums&#8230; and what is the most disturbing, on the roads. And Renault? Just few short reviews [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Cool design, good suspension and precise handling, 5 seats, over 200 BHP under the hood, 6.1 seconds from 0-62 mph and a maximum speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). Sounds like a good hot hatch definition. Some time ago this performance would mean&#8230; Porsche, or BMW M3. Now you get that in a compact class. [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Are they crazy? All this power will rip Your hands of... And leave them in the cloud of smoke left while trying to move forward... Looks like the idea was noble, but they didn't have the guts to give everything they had and held back.  They said that it will be a competition for Mitsubishi Evo and Impreza STI. Yeah... Right...
