All they said was that as a city car it sucks. But hang on, Isuzu direct the adds at off road. 
Biased reporting only focused on those who will drive the kids to soccer.
Load of baloney if you ask me!

Not sure how much faith to put in some of these articles. Read the article briefly, then looked at the related articles underneath and one was titled- best 4x4 for a grey nomad, so decided to read it.
Author of the article came up with 3 choices - Prado, Pajero or MUX???????

Don't worry about it.
For every 10 motoring journalists you meet 9 of them are idiots.

Are you really going to let that article influence  what you purchase  --  Holden Colorado 7 -- never got a mention -- ain't that the same vehicle?  Starting to look like some journalists have a bit of brand favouritism  :police:
