Friday afternoon, five o’clock. Computer off, the door of your workplace can close behind you, the weekend has started. On Autoreview.nl we look back on a week in which we fell in love with a Porsche 911 Turbo and the BMW iX xDrive40 turned out to be disappointing. Good news, bad news. Top and flop.
