Default S2000 in daily express

Hi,

A friend just called to tell me that on page 26 (IIRC) of the Daily Express, there are the results of a safety test between some roadsters, and the S2000 came 1st.

Not seen the article yet though...

Crap article, doesn't actually say anything.
Lots of different categories, for the Roadster the order was:

1. S2000
2. BMW Z4
3. Tigra - WTF!!!!!

Seems be referencing the AutoExpress Magazine test, their web site doesn't appear to have this, but I did find:

The S in 3rd

Also interesting to see the Type-R saloon for the Japanese market:

PS. I didn't buy the Daily Express, just picked it up when I was getting my lunch

love the fact the 350z beat the S in "handling" the 350Z quite clearly has way better handles.
