Daewoo Matiz vs The Evo Triangle!

GRRRRROWL! A frenetic 796cc three-pot Korean supermarket trolley does battle with the notorious Evo Triangle - a twisting section of road in stunning Snowdonia, North Wales. Does the road deserve the reputation? Can you have fun on it with just 50bhp?

On a visit with friends to the UK in 1996, we spotted a lightly camouflaged prototype mule driving on public roads. We were convinced that we had just see the “new Mini”. (We were massive classic Mini enthusiasts on holiday from the US, and the Frank Stephanson- designed MINI had not yet been shown, but everyone knew a new Mini was coming). We followed the car to the gates of Ricardo Engineering. The test drivers were pretty mad at us for trying to take photos of the car. And they would not confirm or deny that it was a prototype “new Mini”. A couple of years later, the distinctive shape of the prototype we had spotted was unveiled as the new Matiz!

[@kaitlyn__L]

You didn't need any more than 55 BHP. It was the excellent steering and handling as much as anything that made it fun.

We're only going to see more anpr average speed being rolled out, the sheer thrashy fun factor of these is the key around it.

[@Grez6232]

I'm sure Ian has mentioned it before, but it's worth remembering that the Matiz started life as Ital Design's proposal for the Fiat Cinquecento, dubbed Lucciola. The Lucciola and Matiz are quite different in many ways, but the evolution from one to the other is clear to see. The Lucciola looks like the Matiz's cooler, older sibling

I think I remember you driving a Suzuki Capuccino last year, as Matt from furiousdriving just drove one on his channel as a very low mileage example is up for sale! I distinctly remember you driving a Japanese kei car either in New Zealand or Australia 🇦🇺, and I do remember the Suzuki Capuccino. Today's 3 cylinder is like the Capuccino, a turbo making quite a bit of horsepower, but on winding roads, it's all about suspension and tyre grip, and Myrtle handled quite well (at least from the vantage point I was watching). And the countryside is simply stunning! A village plopped right in the middle of farmland, nothing for miles! Breathtaking! Thank you very much Sir Ian! Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏 !

Wonderful Myrtle. Ian you bought her in 1999. In 1998 I was driving a 1987 Fiat Panda 750 L, also designed by Giugiaro, with a 769 cc 4 cylinder FIRE engine and 4 speed box. You have reminded me of some serious fun that I had in the Panda around West Donegal which looks very similar to parts of Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. I think I had 36 bhp but the Panda was very light, scarily so at the back end. Imagine the fun I had, when you bought Myrtle, I graduated to a 1990 Fiat Panda Sergio Tacchini with a 5 speed and a Mighty 1000 cc big block. I will be coming to Wales as soon as possible to see that EVO Triangle.

Agree with the sentiment. First car (ignoring the Escort van) was a Mk1 Golf Formel E. 1.1 engine with 4 speed box. 4th was like overdrive and so far removed from the rest of gears that you had to thrash it in every gear to reach it. Huge fun to drive! Less is more!

Next, the Abergwesyn to Tregaron road. One of the most famous night rally roads. Drive it at night and try for the record. Last time I looked it was well north of 100mph (possibly nearly 140mph) in a works tr7 V8. Stay safe and well.

[@isaacplaysbass8568]

What a wonderful run that was. You're not wrong, that 3 cylinder engine sounds absolutely lovely. Thank you for sharing it with us. Such a beautiful place to drive, it beats the congestion of cities. I really want to explore Wales in my van once conditions allow. Your videos whet my appetite. Rant starts: Driving around in Cornwall, I despair at people that drive at 40mph in a national speed limit on a good day, then continue at 40mph through a 30mph limit. Such people are usually the ones that also compulsively put their brakes on if seeing oncoming vehicles or bends, with little regard for whether then actually need to do so. Thus they waste their tyres, brakes, and fuel. They often seem incapable of operating their indicators too. So many times I've had to guess whether such drivers' brake lights are indicative of an intention to slow down to turn off, or just another random and vague act of braking that will barely slow them at all, simply because they don't indicate with appropriate warning. Rant Ends! Thank you Ian :)

[@Litesnip2022]

As Top Gear one said, little cars are fun as you can take them to the limit on normal roads without needing to break the speed limit. We get such idiots (mainly motorbikes) on the cost road in Dorset between Abbotsbury and Bridport, as such they changed it to being 50mph even on sections that should be national speed limit, admittedly going up Abbotsbury hill the speed limit is not really a problem! Naturally we also get "Sunday drivers". (18% max if the internet is correct, gets steeper as you go up so you get up some speed, change gear and immediately realise your mistake!) Even worse on the beach road to Portland we get people looking at the scenery and not where they are going so go about 30mph on a 60, not good.

It started with a four cylinder 1200 (I think) engine and now it's up to 1400. I worked at a GM dealership, but never drove one. The most interesting one to me, though, was only introduced for a short time in Oregon and California. It was pure electric, and the early ones had something like 400 foot pounds of torque. One test I saw showed the driver getting wheel spin at 40 mph!
