Fair enough they're fine in the corners but so are most hatchbacks,
There isn't much to accelerating, and they're still slow.
This whole drive them properly doesn't mean much to me, it's not hard to fly round a corner, once you drive a car which will wheel spin it's way through 3rd gear you learn how to drive properly,
Never the less there's still plenty of fun to be had in them, they're just really slow, all there is too it mate, the fire engine owners make a bad name for themselves, they have to argue with everyone and resort to trying to rip you over the internet because they're in some disbelief that their 65bhp monster is rapid.
People put far, far too much emphasis on power outputs and performance figures. In the real world, a seemingly weedy car can be surprisingly swift if it's in the correct hands. That is the point we are trying to make. I never had a problem with my old mk2, and I find my Grande to be a very satisfying drive.
