Those awards were a load of b*llocks.

BMW wins best small car. Focus wins family car. Golf wins COTY.

Does anyone else see thge problem with this? they're all from the same class. Fair enough, golf is classier than Focus, but both are family cars. BMW 1 Series was launched to take on Golf and A3 at premium end of the class.

So why was it competing against a f*cking smart car? What a load of c*ock. Fair enough, the focus won the family car segment, but Fifth Gear are so afraid not to give BMW an award they fudge the results so it can still win. Load of cr4p.

Plus, Tiff needel is a total c*nt.

Agree with you there mate....what a load of cr*p. How can the BMW be classed as 'small car' as you say against a Smart and then cost nearly double the money. That Mitsubishi thing in the same class they said was about ?8k, yet the BMW starts at ?15k....nice one!!!

Someone who prefers power oversteer to (yawn) understeer
