Diagram is wrong
[edit]As I understand it there should also be a line of cones up the left hand side of the diagram. Greglocock (talk) 03:10, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

- The end result is the same though? I think it's more that the one used in the article is simplified - but I wouldn't be averse to changing it for a freely available more accurate/specific diagram. Chaheel Riens (talk) 08:24, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
- No, you could pass the test shown in the diagram by driving off the LHS of the page. That is a fail. Greglocock (talk) 23:00, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

Worst car
[edit]To clarify my reversion - the Rialto is by far the worst at 42.5Kph, and after that the slowest is a three-way tie between the Ford Ranger Double Cab XLT Limited, Mazda BT-50 Double Cab Exclusive and the Citroën C4 Picasso HDi all at 54Kph.
That the Mazda and Ford have the same result isn't much of a surprise as they both share the Ford T6 platform, but they're distinct vehicles so each get an entry. Chaheel Riens (talk) 08:22, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
- The rialto has one wheel less. Hence is much more likely to tip over. Greglocock (talk) 22:44, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
Rename current champion section
[edit]I suggest "Cherry picked examples" Greglocock (talk) 22:44, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
- I disagree - once again, I believe you to be pointy and borderline disruptive by suggesting such an obviously provocative heading. The first, last and 26-year record holder are not "cherry picked examples". A "cherry picked example" would be something like the Citroën C4 Picasso HDi when it was not the slowest vehicle, but also shared its speed with two others - and also performed the test in damp conditions, (unlike the two others sharing the same speed) making it more likely to perform poorly in the first place.
