Since when did EVO journos know fuck all about cars?

I'd say their methodical appraoch to testing, and their combined knowledge is fairly extensive. They've got Gordon Murray as a guest writer - clearly they should have asked you instead Chip.

In fact, I'd say they were about as independent as possible - if any of their fleet cars are serviced or worked on, they give an honest appraisal of the service recieved as possible, often negative if that is the case.

Car reviews are also fairly spot on - they always come in for criticism when it comes to their shootouts but they are obviously limited, and if I remember the article correctly, they certainly gave the old mini the deserved credit.

Stil, I can't understand where I've been going wrong all this time? I looked to EVO as a one of the finest motoring magazines available, when all this time I should have been looking to Total Vauxhall as the bastion of unbiased motoring journalism.
