Re: *Little Sedan BATTLE* (C-class, A4, 3 series...)!

That blue Acura is stunning. Want one!

Hmm, the A4. To be honest, it's getting on a bit (a lot), I don't think much of the style of Audi interiors at the moment (high quality but a little boring IMO), and what Audi did at the last facelift was to make it look uglier. I can't deny it's a good car though, because it's a great one.

CTS - it looks a little gawky to me. The old one was quite nice, in a very unusual way, but this one has gone for a mainstream look. And in my opinion, it hasn't worked - lost all that made the previous one special, whilst making it look pretty awful at the same time.

IS - loads of people (especially a few of my colleagues) are considering or driving an IS at the moment. Can't say I blame them, because it's one of the best looking here, yet it still looks 'Lexus' enough to be individual. I like this car - perfect for me in every way!

Lincoln. Not much to say here, except it looks garish and over-chromed to the hilt. I can't really comment on it further, as I've never seen one never mind driven one, so I'll leave it at the stage where I think it looks crap...

3-series. I conceed this has grown on me a lot, I mean from the stage where I hated its guts to where I would consider a lightly-used one. It was a Le Mans blue 330d Touring with the g..g..g..gorgeous alloys and M-Sport bodykit, I almost slapped myself for missing out on this beauty. Still unsure of the interior fascia - looks slightly plasticky to me, though I may be wrong, but this is probably #1, simply because there isn't anything (IMO) that can come close to it as an all-round package.

Infinifitnif..? Again, with the Lincoln, I can't really comment on this (slightly delicious) beauty (but what with Inifnifitirifti coming to the UK in 2009 [or later] maybe it will!), but just from looks of the interior I can tell that's a fab car. Not as stylish as the others here, but still distinctive. I like it.

Acura TL. I think this is basically the Honda Accord, but we can't get it in that spec - everything about the car in the picture is so fabulous I may have to check my underwear...no.2 in my list, probably because in my experience the Accord is a nice car and I think this would be even better.

New C-class. Really undecided about this one, not sure what to think at all. I want to like the looks after the last one (which IMO was a bit sloppy) but I'm not sure I do. Pretty much neutral on this one!

Hope you don't mind the occasional in-depth analysis!
