Oh yes, saw that, needless to say, Renault will get bottom marks.

my car's too old for this now. :(

What? All of it is too old? ;)

Looking at their unreliable cars, is there any reason do you think that 7/10 are French?

Oh and a scathing report for the Clio, stupid thing.

VW Polo (New) (134th) :eek:

What's that doing in there? :confused:

Done :D

I can't understand why they have a three-year cutoff point. Surely any half-decent car can last that long? Why don't they survey older cars - then we would see which models fall by the wayside and which are the real stayers.

You'd still find French cars in the bottom 10. :thumbup:

If your car is the right age don't forget to fill in the form :thumbup:

All filled in and submitted

:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

I suppose it's to see how reliable cars are in the warranty period. All cars should last a lot longer than that, but then in theory you would end up with a 2005 Honda Civic, going against a 1996 version, there the newer one is a lot higher quality and the older one will possibly have had a few owners.

Also you would end up like Gran Tourismo with 700 different cars and that makes it a bit too unmanageable in a survey,

Don't understand this - they say cars registered 2002-2004, mine's Oct 04 (a 54 plate) yet they won't accept me as it's "too new". Next time...

Mine's too new too.

Aye, to new this end to :(

Although nice to see the results, Skoda doing very well :thumbup:

I've put my two pennies worth in.

Favourite question for me was where they ask you what made you decide in this manufacturer / model of car. One of the options was "image" which I promptly ticked :D

Are you allowed to fill in a reliability survey if your car is modified? Surely that will skew the results ;)

Chris

Done. :)

If my experience this year is typical, then Skoda will be descending in the rankings a little. They're beginning to rest on their laurels.

One car to new,one car to old.Can't take part :(

Both fine though.No gripes here :)

Both cars done... :thumbup: Both great.

I registered :D And I'm not from the UK :D
