What's the best PH article... EVER??

[Papa Hotel]

So the gratuitous gun crime of the Ferrari Estate article was met with mixed reactions. Some hated the idea, some didn't care, most seemed to agree it wasn't the finest 20 minutes a journalist has spent in front of a laptop.

There is better out there, much better. What's your favourite article of recent times? Or olden days if you can remember. It doesn't have to be full of Evo-style pontificating, it doesn't have to be wacky like TopGear, dull and factual like What Car or almost completely invented like Auto Express, just something that struck a chord.

Perhaps we could compare it to some or the articles and films you've had published, you know for comparison!

I really struggle to see why people are getting so worked up over it!

As for best articles on PH, would have to say the PH Heroes articles, always a good read and pretty much always find myself browsing the classifieds after reading them.

I'm asking for positives, not for a continuation of a debate that is already five pages long on another thread. Thanks.

My vote goes to the one written by a convicted criminal who was bragging about the various supercars bought with money he'd defrauded people of. That one didn't go down too well

That one was taken down, wasn't it?

Correct

I find them a bit tedious. Unreliable money-pits from an obsolete manufacturer, who'd have thought it? Again and again and again.

Ah, balls to ya!

That one about PHer's sexual exploits, recently revived from all the way back in 2001!!

Best couple of hours I've spent on here.

Cheers,

I'm not sure that was a journalistic piece...

It's the new "Publish and Be Damned!".

I haven't seen a new one in a while, maybe you'd care to remedy that? The trials and tribulations of a real owner are always more interesting than Porsche handing over a new Panamera for praise and publicity.

Any of the 'My First Car' articles get my vote.

The Jason Plato/stalker article/thread.

I think some people are having trouble differentiating between an article and a thread lol..

The best PH article ever* was the below one about Sebastian Loeb.

These were the first things I read when I came to the site and loved them!

To the powers that be... Was there are reason for stopping doing them? Any chance of commisioning more?
