Default When was the last time British car mags like Audi?

I don't seem to remember. Jaguar, on the other hand, is best thing since sliced bread for them. British journalism lost creditability after they praised X-Type over A4.

Default The guy is a moron...

Anti American jealous chap, hates us for what we have in this country (which we worked our *** off for) and can't stand the fact that Audi tramples all over his beloved British Ford, I mean Jaguar.
