The press was actually quite good for the Mk1 and Mk2s. It was around the time of the Mk3 when the press started slagging it off, mainly because of its old-man image and because things like rear wheel drive were seen as being outdated amongst all those FWD 80's hatches ...

These days of course we think of that differently ;-)
