| Re: German car reliability
I wonder about how reliabilty is counted in these surveys?
I mean, not to argue the point, but I know I have certainly seen German manufactured cars being returned to the dealership because the owner didn't know how to properly drive manual transmissions. I've seen Audi and BMW transmissions absolutely smoked - in one case the driver of a brand new Z4 thought that all shifts should be thrown at red-line..the trans lasted
a coupla months before finally packing it in.
I know this is anecdotal..but I've seen German cars countless times just absolutely mauled by inexperienced drivers. |
