Having spent the last 20-odd years driving different cars on a weekly basis, often twice a week, George Fowler is more qualified than most to hold an opinion that counts. A reader of his Motormouth column once asked him what he thought about a car he’d praised, and added: ＂I know you get paid by the manufacturers to say nice things, so I just wondered what you really thought.＂ That week, a furious Fowler absolutely slaughtered the then new Nissan Primera, and added at the end of his column: ＂How much do you think Nissan paid me for that, Mr Smith of Preston?＂ He didn’t get a reply. If your car is, or was, remotely good then you won’t find it in this book. On the other hand, if it’s here, don’t expect any sympathy.
