It really matters little what reviewers say. You buy the car you want and like.

Collating the various reviews, it appears that the Mercedes A250 AMG 6.5-7/10ths car, the Mk7 Golf GTI is a 7.5-8/10ths car, the BMW M135i is a 8-8.5/10ths car, the Audi S3 is a 8.5-9/10ths car and the Mercedes A45 AMG is a solid 10/10ths car.

But, so what? And who cares?

Just a bit of inside info but you lot do know that car manufactures press fleet are not the same cars you and I buy.  :wink:
Its why I take all car reviews with a pinch of salt. Also advertisment keep these people in jobs  :wink:
I test drive public production spec cars and make my own opinions.
As for bias this sites is biased too as you lot just spend tens of thousands on something so your all biased  :grin:

Ha, Ha. Without bias, we'd never buy anything. It's good to have a bias but even better to keep an open mind. I'm biased towards BMWs and Porsches and to a slightly lesser extent towards Mercedes. These are the makes I can afford at present. What I would really love to have is a Ferrari or a Macca. Now this is not bias, it's a yearning. Therefore, I am merrily trying to up my income. :grin:

I'm perfectly calm thank you. I just can't resist pointing out the ridiculousness of your posts! You are hilarious!!

You're minted - yet you drive an old 330d. You have 2 or 3 birds on the go (I forget the number you said) yet you're posting on an Internet forum on a Friday night.  :rolleyes:

Classic Internet bullish!t!  :grin:
