Thought youd like to know your favourite man is now chief of your favourite magazine! Yes thats right Steve Sutcliffe is now Editor of Autocar

The same magazine has a whats quickest A to B car test in which the Clio Cup appears to come last...they say its a great car to learn how to drive in but then you end up wanting to go in something faster. Oh well..

[Scudetto]

thanks for that, Rob. Im not surprised hes now editor - they say froth rises to the top...

[RobFenn]

lol cruel, i still quite like him and genuinely look forward to reading the Q&A thing he does..

 

[Scudetto]

youd better get back to your stephen sutcliffe scrap book then

[jon_r]

Agreed Mr Sutcliffe seems to be a top bloke.

 

[Scudetto]

q: how can I fix the handling of my s2000?

a: buy a boxster.

yeah, great pearl that one!

g

 

[RobFenn]

He is right though! He is brutally honest..i like that im afraid! Tact isnt one of my fortes though..

 

[Scudetto]

he may well be Rob. But theres a difference between being honest, and being useless. What help was that answer to the s2000 owner? Right now he has an s2000 (maybe he cannot bail out of it for a few more years etc) and wanted handling help from an expert. Instead he got a petulant response from a big kid after a cheap laugh.

[RobFenn]

Is it so wrong to take the piss once in a while? Youd think being an Autocar reader the S2000 reader would of already known what Autocar think of the car...and what Stevo can be like..

 

[Scudetto]

ok, guess so. You win mister. Hail to The Sutcliffe.

[RobFenn]

Good lad, now if you werent such a nice guy youd possibly win one of these Steve Sutcliffe debates.

-Rob

 

[Scudetto]

i only backed down because SS isnt worthy of a debate truely worthy of my crushing intellect. (yeah, right!)

g

 

[Scudetto]

hmmm, thatll be the same crushing intellect then that helped me write worthy twice in the same sentence. Mince and as thick as springs effortlessly to mind...

[Tom]

SS is a top bloke met him loads of times

 

[Scudetto]

I feel guilty now.

g

 

[RobFenn]

Ha ha. Yeah supposedly he gives half of his wages to charities and the food he doesnt eat is sent to Africa.

-Rob

 

[Scudetto]

looking at him, i doubt he leaves any food on his plate thats worth sending.

g

 

[RobFenn]

lol yeah i guess he is a bit of a billy bunter!
