DRIVE have really sucked everyone in with their test - they have got exactly the controversy they wanted - and now publishing rebukes from Holden.

The ADR tests are a guide - all cars are tested the same way, if they didn't have them, who would you rely on for Fuel consumption figures - your mates or Grandmother, I think you might get a fair discrepancy between the two.

This has to be the biggest load of drivel I have ever heard.
