Which journo's claim it torque steers?

I think one reviewer mentioned a slight torque steer, but he was a kinda puny lookin fella.
The general consensus is that it handles brilliantly and 4wd would have spoilt it.
I'm gonna have to stop biggin this car up as i'm in danger of becoming a "fanboy". The positive reviews have really got me looking forward to it, albeit I don't think i'll get a sniff of it until September at the earliest.

....I can well understand that. 4WD/quattro cars have very safe roadholding within the extreme limit but just don't have that tactile edge.
