Where was Matt Saunders?
"Matt Saunders took to Majorcan roads..."
I'm Confused. External shots are obviously abroad - driving on right with lhd car. And in opening sequence, Matt stands beside a blue lhd car. So he's in Mallorca.
But when Matt is driving, he's driving an orange rhd car on left side of the road. OK so external shots are in Mallorca, internal shots were taken in UK? But looking at the scenery (especially the signage), Matt doesn't look to be driving in UK.
So question is, where was Matt when he was driving?

Look in the mirror
And then you will realise what they did with the interior footage. The wonders of digital video editing, and Matt's symetric haircut. Sherlock Holmes, you aren't :)
I thought this was a relatively honest review. Not naming those cars he referred to as being pretenders in terms of sportier driving, and not referencing the size constraints by virtue that VW also make a T-Roc were the only glaring nods to not upsetting manufacturers' PR departments.

This 'feature' feels dishonest. Hey Matt, can you do an editorial-type vid for the new T-Roc? You can be honest about it. Kind of. Would be great to get more exposure here...

Maybe VW are trying to buck the trend. In reality, I'd have thought most owners will be rather older than thirty.

Vw t cross feature
OMG, Autocar, or better still, matt whoever he is? Are you REALLY for real with that feature?? KINDA SCRATCHY PLASTICS?, BUT they don't seem to be an issue cos its a VW, WHAT A PISS TAKE??, How much did vw pay for this "unbiased test"?? Will you EVER drop this Germanic Brilliance nonsense & call a spade a spade?? Just how quality can plastic get, or artificial "leather" for that matter? What a pile of crap.

It may be your 'best small
It may be your 'best small SUV' but it's also dull as ditchwater.
