Is this a sensible review of an Artura Spyder?

[ChrisW.]

Particularly when compared to his very favourable review of the earlier coupe .... and the various Evo and Autocar reviews ??

Click bait! I just can't believe a UK presenter would try and do so much harm to a UK company just for 'clicks' Matt Watson has gone way down in my trust now. I wont believe anything he says now. Fake smoke. FFS. As far as I can see the roof stopped because he tried to jam his hand in it when putting it up.

And he faffed around trying to use the launch control as-if it's complicated, razzed the tyres and then tested the braking performance where it appeared to me that the ABS was stepping in, comparing the stopping distance then to a GT3 ... side by side or incomparable ?

It's so unprofessional one has to wonder if it's all fake ... for a discount on the GT3 Touring that he mentioned ??

I hope I'm not being too cruel to him ... but maybe I'm not being cruel enough ??? Maybe the headline and the fake smoke tells its own story ...

You are correct, he always loads his videos to suit his agenda, bit like the BBC.

Given the fake smoke and the first opinions I didn't bother clicking.

No point in encouraging him.

I don’t care what he thinks.. I still like it!

I'm with you on that! (Subject to driving one and it passing the suspension compliance test.)

Incredibly annoying person, just screams all the time.

Hell is being stuck in a lift with him and Shmee.

I spent a week with one earlier this year and did a full review for the SSO Report.

Quite a good improvement on the Gen 1 coupe.
