Marco.
But JC does exaggerate a great deal, and utter a lot of crap, so that doesn't mean that he's right about that.

One small car he liked about a decade ago was the Hyundai i10 - and I agree it's a (or was - not sure about the new ones) cracking little car, but that doesn't make it a great one.

Recently I've driven several Fiat 500s, which to my surprise were really nice, though I probably wouldn't actually buy one.
