Though I read Evo the ratings are bollox

In a normal distribution you'd expect a lot of 2-4 star cars and some 1s and 5s. We just see 4s and 5s mostly.

Having said that I do think s2000s are rather special

It's not a great write up, it is full of errors.

There may well be some factual errors in the text, however it does not detract from what the writer (who is a very experienced journalist and racer) is trying to say about the car. His thoughts on the car are very clear for all to see.
You are entitled to your opinion of course.

IF he's a "very experienced journalist" then one would expect him to achieve some level of accuracy about the vehicle he is writing about. He hasn't. That is fact, not opinion.

Would be happy to help him with accuracy, as it's hard to be an expert on many different vehicles, as has been done for many other experienced journalists.
