Ahhh but at least we don't have to worry about any of the presenters buying a D' then, which would immediately make owning one uncool :wink: :lol: .

...out of interest, what did we get beaten to the punch by? Who's car was number 1.?


We need a new bumper sticker i think.

"No.2 as nominated in BBC Top Gear's crappest cars. No.2 aint bad, but we're all still striving for that No.1 spot!"

:lol:

I think really, the only people i've EVER heard saying that the D' was crap, is car journalists and loud mouths out and about with no proper opinion of their own, so just regurgitate the opinions of those aforementioned journalists.
EVERYONE else, i've EVER met or talked to about the D' either is really curious, and want to know more, or they already LOVE it, either for its looks (which no-one can deny) or its just pure difference from EVERYTHING else out there.
It's a people's car, and that's why it lives in the hearts of many.
People look past the imperfections, and appreciate seeing one out and about as intended.
It's a car which ALWAYS brings a smile, OR an aghast shocked expressioned look upon faces all over.
We know it, they know it.
Let the journalist say whatever they want. They're just writing something, anything, about the car, cause they know people want to see pics of it, and read about it, regardless of the content.
It sells.

The people have spoken.
