I can't find this anywhere just the nominations from today? Were they in Scotland again?

Dumfries.
 
Ok, I've ticked off the Focus and the Audi can anyone help me out and lend me the keys to the other 10; I hate to leave a job unfinished :D
 
Is that the final result??

Always seems pointless having a car in this type of test that cannot be purchased as it's a limited edition model.

Surprised by m2, friend just got one and from his and other journos feedback would have expected this to be top 3 easily...
 
I was waiting for the video. Was hoping this thread was about what people thought would win. Damn, now I know before I see the video :what:
 
I'm surprised how high up the Golf came. Haven't had a chance to read the mag yet...

Not surprised by where the R came

New GT3 is shaping up to be a cut-price R from what I've been hearing
 
...and did anyone read the pile of bull do-do in the same issue that posed as a 'buyers guide' of the 997.1? Apparently no specialist will stock a 997 S due to bore scoring risks, and build quality took a dive after the 996. I love my 996 but WTF?

EVO should be ashamed of regurgitating internet nonsense without bothering to do any actual research themselves.
 
There have been a few high profile departures from EVO recently. Henry Catchpole is moving to Drive Tribe, Jethrow Bovington has left as has Nick Trott (he's heading to Motorsport magazine.
 
Owning both a 991 GT3 and a Golf R I do struggle with the love the magazines have for the Golf. I realise the Clubsport is different with being 2 wheel drive and different suspension etc.

However the Golf R gets rave reviews and as much as I think its a good every day performance car its handling is average and turbo lag in normal driving can be a problem.

Its not that I don't like it, its comfortable, fast and safe, just think its overrated as I don't find it that exciting.

Get me and my first world problems!

:)

100% agree - how on earth can the Golf finish ahead of the 570S and NSX??. :nooo:
 
I find the idea of the Golf Clubsport irritating. Whats the point of a hot hatch with no rear seats. The whole point is that they are 'people's heroes', a car built for the average man to be day to day practical and a hoot to drive.
