Plus, you can post questions and ask Paul for more information!

no i think top gear won and it was published (what car's printed feature doesn't include a drive)

4Car beat me to the publishing of the drive report. I thought it was 8am today, then I realised it was 12am! (Which is why it appeared at 5am!?).

Nice work chaps.

Here's ours:

There was also a review in yesterday's Sunday Times, which is available online at www.the-times.co.uk - follow the 'Driving' link. The correspondent was less than impressed with the performance and rigidity but everything else got a good report.

And this week's Autocar also has a review, mostly favourable.
