I don't subscribe to one being inherently better than the other. Each has pros and cons and each can be made to excel on the street.
I have driven numerous examples of deltas though, and have yet to sample a motorized tadpole... except for the swather on the farm.
I bet that Deltawing, if reconfigured to three wheels, would still excel.
Top Gear's slanted Reliant piece is more about entertainment than how awful deltas are, but then the Reliant is not an example of a properly engineered delta even when it isn't sabotaged for tv.
