Kim Adams' Verdict

"A new tyre for the smaller end of the market which is getting less and less attention as car makers move onto bigger sizes. But the EcoContact3 is definitely no afterthought. It could be called Conti's water baby as it stars when the heavens open. At the test track while rivals slipped and slid across the soaking tarmac the EcoContact 3 was very secure, nailing the car to the track and requiring very little extra effort from the driver."
