    Motoring journalists get to drive it for articles they'll write.

    Does that make commercial sense - given the number of Continentals they will sell in 2019?

    I though the standard practice was to fly motoring journalists to exotic locations to be wined and dine and let loose for a test drive, didn't think they'd get a loan of a GT for a few weeks.

    How many Irish journos do you reckon will get a loan of that car?

    Could they plaster any more chainlink fence on the front of that?

    Yip, I think it’s just rotten. Loved the previous model, but this new machine just looks wrong.

    Just say nice things about every car you review and don't ever criticise a car for anything, that's how you become an Irish motor journalist at least :D
