Well thats a suprise. It is also nice to see what a swedish mag has for the first time putting a volvo at the bottom of a test.

Swedish motorjournalist as sooooooooooooo biased. This is actually the first time find out about a Volvo loosing a comparison. Maybe you have heard of Aftonbladet's motorjournalist namned Colin, he is very Volvo biased and so were Trafikmagasinet and the motor show on TV4.

swedish TV often rank swedish cars but swedish AMS rarely put saab or volvo on first place when the germans are involved.

A Greek car magazine had a test of BMW 320 against Volvo S40 the other day and the S40 won. Strange but true.

Who gives a $h!t? j/k...

To be honest, these comparison tests becamed boring, imo. Sportauto this, AMS that, C&D that, etc... And always the same $h!t! If someone's favorite car didn't win the test, immediately there's a 10 pages of argue and stuff...

Boring, really, afaic...

 

[Beemer B773ER]

Damn, most suprising is how the Lexus is able to run with the BMW in the 0-200km/h dash!!

...and also the fact that the Lexus was rated with higher quality than the Audi... well, I know it's simply one comparison, but a suprising result nonetheless.

Great to see the 5er top this comparison.

AMS is kind of German so that kind of explains it all. If Teknikens värld would have conducted the comparison the result would have been different.
