What is it with the presenters of that program, unless a car is
rear wheel drive with loads of oversteer it's labelled as boring
and "not a drivers car". 

Very few people would be able to control the leary handling RWD cars
they praise so much. There's a very good reason all BMW's (in the UK
at least) now have Automatic Stability Control (ASC) and Cornering
Brake Control (CBC) as standard - even the 105hp 316i runt.

Anyway...... what about that RS4!
