Default Tarmac magazine- XR4 vs Swift Sport vs Polo GTi

Hey all,

I just saw this review in a new mag called Tarmac (www.tarmac-mag.com.au). It seems to be their first issue, I have never seen it before anyway. Its a pretty cool mag actually. Anyway the Fiesta gets a good right up. I wouldn't be able to choose if it was me. The XR4 and Polo are so close!

Very nice. Thanks for the info.

The Polo GTI is XR4's closest rival.
