    Guess they are createing content to try to gain views....
    Sad it is more of an essay or a blog post with a few facts than a news or an analysis piece..
    Owning a tdi...I had to kinda laugh.. The posts are kinda/sorta right from reading usatoday/nytimes/etc....I like original info and articles... And blog style articles are a waste of time for any informed reader.....

    PS
    Anybody notice the "you may also like sponsored content" is a bigger part of the page than the article?
    Gotta wonder....motoringfile was once indepent....then became the mouthpiece of MINI/BMW...now taking advertising from many others...kinda wondering if the editorial info is gonna get even worse....
    I know folks have bills to pay...but how many zero value blog articles can one post about to get folks to click links before folks stop going....
