Im not talking about having a light in the trunk dude. It´s about a well lighted engine while driving.
The handbrake was the main reason why we did not bought the new passats. We (salesmen) had not much fun with the old passats, too loud, too slow, too ugly. The new one (as a combi) was too ugly too us at all and my boss was thinking that the new passat looks too big and luxurious for a salesman-car. So we got the new Peugeot 407 SW. Not really a beauty, specially from the back - but it´s a great car. FAP included.
You decided to buy a Peugeot instead of a Volkswagen... hmm, someone hasn't taken their smart pills lately. No wait, you bought a FRENCH car, and not a GERMAN one? Erm..... and your saying it looks nice now? erm,..... Seriously stop doing Magic Mushrooms.... This is scary...
Peugeot cars are really good imo. For private I owned several PUGs, 205, 405 and 605. Never had trouble with this cars. I love the late 80z car shape, straight lines no chrome-lookin plasticparts. The only 2 german brands I would buy is (of course) Opel and Mercedes. Ford and BMW... suc.. erm... I don´t like...
VW is overpriced ugly car with completely uninteresting feeling with it, also those are cold at winter :tempted:
Now certainly not everyone likes from same things for one it is Peugeot, for some VW, some people may even like only old cars only without so much interest to any make or model.
Achievements of manufacturer sure does not resemble what kind of cars they produce. For example, I think it was KIA that has model that gets 4 stars in NCAP, but also they had model that got only 2 stars, it will always be a car that matters not the make.
I can tolerate peoples opinion, but when your arguing with Statistics, just because you don't like the look of a car, you are really pushing it. VW and AUDI are Drivers cars. How can you drive a Volkswagen Beetle and not have any 'feeling' it is THE drivers car..
Sounds like you really do not know much about the history of Peugeot BlueFlame. Its one of the most traditional car builders left in the world. They build one of the first passengers cars with diesel engine, WR on Pikes Peak, Rallye Championchip, Lemans, several Diesel Worldrecords and and and and. And of course the first real Coupe-Cabriolet. Ages before Ford and even nearly a century before Mercedes. Ask yourself why you don´t see many older Mercedes and Peugeots on the roads. They are all inn africa.
Of course Ford is NOT a german brand but Ford has a complete own german "line" of cars sinse ages. Or would you call a Fiesta an "american car"?
Don't bother with Lemans my friend because I have you hands down. As for Diesel world records... i don't know how many for Audi are left to break, but the R10 can do most of it, and the Road Cars can do the rest. Pikes Peak WR? Im not sure, I guess i will WIKI it.
I was talking about a diesel worldrecord before Audi (which is not VW) knew how to write that. But tbh. I don´t care if Pug or VW is better. I like Peugeot more. Thats all.
"caractéristiques: en 1965, elle a parcouru 16627 km en 103 heures, soit 161km/h de moyenne. "
Doesn't say anything about Peugeot there. Unless you want to Edit the WIKI page, and ADD to it.
And Audi IS Volkswagen.. you will find all the crucial parts from Audi's and Volkswagens are interchangable, apart from peripherals such as bodywork.
A good example is a link with Porsche. The side light Indicater on an Audi 80 is the same as Porsche 944, and intern, it was put on the 956 as Headlight Indicators.
You clearly just added that
Don't get smart. Your just trying to play me the fool, as we are the only 2 people reading the topic now. Ill get proof of when this was posted onto Wiki.
"Driving a 1000hp car with one hand and blocking the sun with the other, while you're 10 cms away from a 4500m steep ledge seems like a good idea, doesn't it? Ari is a legend, what else is there to say?"
4cylinders isn't as good as 5 Harry... when will you learn. Your home Country makes the best cars. Cars people can rely on, French cars are Renown for having no reliability. Looks like Some of us never learn whats right from wrong.
Why 6? 5 is the compromise.... Weight of a 4banger and the Power of a 6. 5cylinders is the perfect number. I would choose V10 over V12, V10 has more Torque than V12
To end this debatte. It´s in that class of cars I can spend my money to about the style of the cars and the personal taste. There are a lot of good and nice looking cars out there. Sort out what you like.
When I was 20 I liked to have a fast car to impress.. who? Sorry can´t remember. But now I like to have a smooth ride and enough hp to manage every situation. I don´t drive faster then 200 km/h and I do not break the law. I like to drive for ... lets say another 40 years so it´s better to be cool on the road.
The Original Design was in the 1930's. Nothing can argue with the beetle. I still cannot believe the Corolla is best selling car in the world. Its just... NO, i can't believe it!
