I don't think I've ever said that Wheels or Motor is biased in 0-100 tests, but sometimes SOME of the writers seem to nitpick at things and put smaller things in bigger consideration than big important things (urggh, the seatbelt felt rather uncomfortable). However, I do believe that sometimes Holden gets more exposure in Wheels and Motor - intentional or not. It is just annoying getting issue after issue with another Holden on the front (thankfully this issue was an exception). This is probably due to either
1. Biased cover designers
2. Clever marketing who wants to get more sales.

BUT, Holdens have generally been faster in 0-100 tests - and haven't they been caught out modifying a test car before? Or is that just a myth?
