Gloucester quote - “Mine only arrived today so here's the summary - they're rather critical about the engine and gearbox. Even the more powerful engine is "lackluster" and interestingly it's the manual gearbox not the CVT they've tested.“
What are these Autocar Guys meaning is it the Mild Hybrid being given a knock ?. Now when you look at the comparisons copied out from Autocar below where is the problem with the QQ Engine / Gearbox. The comparison to me looks pretty good for the QQ, our J11B Tekna + / DCT to me is on a par with the J12 I tested last week with the CVT. The QQ has pretty good bhp / fastest / reasonable acceleration. There are so many negatives flying around at present, as I said recently is it really worth reading and worrying, so the advice is take a Test Drive as the decision is yours in the end - Dave
