Who is the worst writer currently writing about cars?

I'll kick it off by nominating that fat cook & profesional yorshireman James Martin.

Eddie Cunningham, Irish Independent Motoring Editor. I know there's only so many ways to make the latest shopping trolley sounds interesting but he's so hackneyed he should come with a meter.

Tom Ford, is there a more annoying person on the planet? If he uses the word 'fizzog' to describe the front of a car again, I may have to kill him.

June Neary, a woman who writes motoring articles that appear in the crappy motoring section of my local rag, and also appears on such fonts of automotive information such as Yahoo cars and all the crap.

Can fill half a page up with complete drivel about the number of places to put sungless in latest korean Mini-SUV, without actually telling you anything at all useful or technical about the car.

She also tends to describe cars as 'nippy' and 'sporty' and if its a diesel - 'pulls like a train'.

Giving an opinion on this would be cruel.
Too cruel.
