This is some lazy ass journalism - did he even drive the car?

This is some lazy ass journalism - did he even drive the car?

Ahh, god love the poor journalist, we are obviously reading a report from a 50 something family saloon driver having his first experience in a sports coupe.
If indeed he did drive it, it sounds like the whole experience was really alien to him. He tried to give it a clever assessment but will never grasp the concept of owning something that strays slightly from the norm!
A bit like 'Me Mammy' who never got the whole FTO thing!

I never drove one - but I can still tell that that is a bad review.
The guy should stick to reviewing cars that are "built for reliability, economy and practicality "..

What a knob

Ugh, I only read the first two paragraphs and then had to stop out of disgust...

Where did they find this guy? He actually asked what's the purpose of 276bhp and 0-100km in less than 6 seconds?

Why would The Times get a 50 something year old who lives with his parents and drives a Matiz to write an article on something he couldn't possibly appreciate?

(in reply, one of the MANY purposes is to take it to
Mondello and feel the rush of pushing it to its limits! )
