Bit disappointed they've put an SUV in

Cayman GT4 will take it I assume but I'd love it if the Yaris did instead

Is that the Nomad R? Cool as it is, I would prefer if they included the std Atom 4.
Cayman GT4 has got to be up there. And is that a special M2 - 'Competition' or something?

Might buy this because Dickie, but Yaris aside, is it me or is most of this just old platforms that may have had a minor spruce up?

M2 competition is just what they seem to call the updated version, you can’t buy a ‘normal’ m2 any more, they’re all competitions.

M2 CS isn't it?

Presumably the 992 Turbo S won?

Had my subscriber issue today. Bit of a classic year IMO and there's a two part ITV4 documentary on 22/12 and 23/12 all about it apparently

Had a look in town for this issue today, but not on sale until 9th Dec I now realise.

My subscriber copy only arrived today - also received (to the office) a signed document posted first class on Friday. Postal service creaking a bit then...

Excellent article anyway. 7th and 8th places a bit of a surprise, and nice to see a range of opinions on the Yaris GR rather than fawning on Youtube.

I do NOT creak

I read this yesterday. It is indeed an excellent article, close to being back to the old school in terms of sense of adventure and also diversity of cars and attributes. Surprise winner too. Highly recommended for all those who’ve cancelled their subscription

Surprise winner - it seemed like they had hardly mentioned it during the main article (except for the fat steering wheel).

Bought this the other day, glad I did, back to its best. They actually got together the main contenders and the best testers in the business, unlike the last ECOTY I bought. Long may it continue!

Spoiler

I was hoping the Yaris was going to win, but I expecting the LT to win. Still, a very worthy winner, amazing to think that's BMWs first win.

Enjoyed it too, good article.

Spoiler

also liked that the winner is sub six figures. I know it is all about the driving, but as the winners tend to be so far outside the realms of normal people's financial scope, this felt reasonable. Not that I could afford an 80k car, but feels less unattainable.

Different results there...
