VW not all rosey
Fascinating story about how VW have a job on their hands actually making money on their core brand, and how a plan to become the world's largest car producer has come unstuck.

Don't think the quality of vw is as good as it used to be. Can't see how fiat and Chrysler would do them any favours neither seem to have a very good selection of cars (sorry if you have one!) then again it kinda worked with Skoda if you don't mind driving a poor mans VW lol. 2001 TD5 110 County Station Wagon - sold

The interiors of all VW's I think are awful - bland and boring.

A VW is one car I've never had. I always thought they were boring. I don't know for how long the Golf will carry on looking the same, nor the standard Porsche, either. I thought the reveal about VW's tiny profit margin was alarming for such a major company! They have a small SUV coming up, the Taigun, which is a little cracker. But I am not sure now if many of the concepts will get built - given that VW are about to embark on a cost-cutting exercise. Now left.
