A4 was the only car in the last 1/4 to actully improve sales over last year apart from ford with the focus
And Audi were the only manufactuer to increase sales (on 1%) over last year

Good car imo. Im smoking a Q5 at the minute - which is surprisingly better than I expected.....but I have had to reign the future values in accordingly.

The new Superb looks, well superb. Can be had for as little as £19k brand new, specced. The credit crunch choice according to Fifth Gear.

How can you back this up? Have you driven all of the cars back to back?

Also Vauxhalls are only so popular as they dump a shit load into the fleet market.

I'm asking how you can back up your statement of them being better than the Audi and BMW's. Not what a select few people say......

Going by the motoring journalists must be right that means your car is shit ollie, clarkson said so.
I've got nothing against the isignia btw, i'll need to go in and have a look at one.

So it's ok to listen to the motoring press when Audi are doing ok, but when Vauxhall win it for the first time in 22 years it's not good enough because surely Vauxhall can't make a car as good as an Audi, NO WAY, an Audi is like the Bentley isn't it?

I don't have any blinkers on, my car is a car. I don't care for it, I don't care for any brand.
You just make me laugh with your sweeping statements. If VW/Audi/BMW are all so shit, why do people buy them, why do they still command a premium? Because fact is they are better cars.

I hate to point this out to you guys as well, but the Vauxhall bias should be fairly strong on this website considering it's a VAUXHALL CORSA WEBSITE? Yes, no? No, we'll just ignore that and continue like usual to just use the website as a source to take out our daily frustrations on one another.

I never said they were shit? Please point out to me where I said they are shit? I said over priced and no longer as good as they were and no longer miles ahead of the so called "premium branded" cars.

Why does there have to be a bias though? Yes its a Corsa website but there is a bit variety of people/car owners on here so you are going to get a mixed opinion.
Should we only say positive things from now on, no-one can criticise/comment on anything?
