I've never seen a rating of five stars in their guide. Did they update it for the 2012 model?

Ok i tried to take a picture and to scan it but it doesnt look very nice,therefor i will try to recreate the text literary:

VFR1200F £12,325
1237cc V4 / 157mph / 152bhp / 38mpg

No gizmos,but a great engine,chassis and finish means they are not missed.Auto (DCT) is pillion-friendly,smooth and £600 more.

So that'll be 5 less miles I'd have to push it then!
