dont get me started on VW golfs,
Too late im started now
i owned a brand new 2.8 v6 4 motion 53 plate and out of a total of 16 weeks of ownership it spent 13 of them in the dealership garage.
VW couldnt give a monkeys they said tough luck its warrantied for 3 years so why are you complaining.
they refused to assist or help in anyway despite my protestations,
a quick list of faults to wet your appetite
4 wheel drive traction control packed in after 2 miles !!!
all 4 ecus were changed 2 of them twice
labda probes packed in twice
steering rack replaced
cd player packed in
internal lights failure
cruise control failure
too many others to list. :shutit:
not to mention the dealership never having any courtesy cars available ( coz there always out to other unfortunate vw owners )
but heh dont let me put you off im sure the new mark 5 is a wonderful car.
the problem with the likes of topgear is they dont have to own one for months and years, they just blat them round the track and tell everyone what a great car it is. theres more to a car than test track speed.
remember when they tried to test one on top gear last year but they couldnt coz it broke down !!!
but to balance things up my old mark 3 never put a foot wrong and was a great car i should never have parted with it for the mark 4 !!
anyway ive said my piece,
just for your info look at the peach or lemon website it says it all.
