Better than the crap PC review conducted on the Car Show yesterday where they (as usual) declined to make an actual choice.

Top Gear says it how it is.... And thats the best thing about the ASBO. Muahaha... I remember a few years ago, the started a season off by declaring they had to show more segments on GREEN Cars. So they put a LIME GREEN LAMBORGHINI as their first test or something... was really quite good ;)
But I still cant believe they were able to consistantly get the car onto 3 wheels on a sopping wet track.... Oh, and I think it was the Astra VXR it was up against also... not the SRI Turbo ;) |

It truly is a work of art the Focus. I find myself twisting my neck looking at them (XR5) on the road. The Astra doesn't compare aesthetically IMO.

Loved that test. He seemed really into it. Almost *too* into it.
Must admit though it looks bloody mean on the black stuff
