Apart from only hearing him talk and not the rest of the sounds at all I found him way too enhusiastic....

He didn't have a clue, stated the car had 'adaptive dampers' at least twice..

Yes the review looses some credibility when he talks about the comfort in different damper settings....mmmmm

Still he liked it so good for people who have one coming.

The first review of Autocar had some weeknesses.
In general, Autocar reviews are very sophisticated and try figure out the true nature of the cars and they say the truth (e.g. about lag).

Interesting point: Unlike other cars the tend to recommend DCT over manual.
