I am going to be in What Car? apparently!

Hi folks,

I posted a review of the FL2 on What Car? website and the editor has e-mailed me saying he wants to put it in the magazine with a photo of me! Famous lol!

Here is a link to my review (David Wright is my name, should be first on list)

I must add a quick apology to XS owners. I had an XS as a courtesy car and I accept you and HSE are way ahead of my GS for kit. When I say "price does not justify extras" I mean for what I actually want. Yes the other bits on the XS and HSE are bloody useful (I had heated seats in a Fiesta ST) but I see them more as something to boast about whereas the GS strikes a damn good balance between kit and price.

Just to clarify lol!

Even the S model is quality and kicks any Censored BMW ass lol! LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

Thanks guys!

To be fair I could of made the review a little more balanced and added the fact that I don't like the annoying little light that prompts for upchanges in a bid to save fuel! I know when to change gear! Infact the system pounces too quickly because it prompts for 5th at 40mph which although it works in that gear, it feels like it is struggling slightly, so 4th is best unless nice flat road with no inclines to be seen lol.

I wish I had time to expand on my hatred for the BMW X3. It is crap. What kind of paint thinner have you got to be sniffing to think that buying an X3 is a good choice? It is an ugly Censored heap with terrible ride quality, about as good off road as a G-Wiz and about as welcome in the presence of my glorious Freelander as a turd in a swimming pool.
