....

They're just bigging-up the Mk6. Just wait until the Mk7 - They'll be writing about what's lacking in the Mk6!

Most of that written article is about how much better the Mk6 is.

Standard stuff when a new model comes out. All the majors do it.

Makes us Mk5 owners feel really good doesn't it! :finger:

It was Snoopy who flagged that this dissing of the outgoing model would happen.
