Post by Taipan »

For some reason I didn't expect to see EVs in here, but I did of course expect Land Rovers, Audis and BMWs and wasn't disappointed! :D

I always wonder if these lists aren't just a list of the most popular cars :hmmm:

Can't imagine the i8 fits with that theory :D

Audi are by far the brand I mostly see 'broken down'.

However I know from the wife being a company car driver in a previous life, that she wasn't allowed to even attempt to change a wheel or even use the magic tyre weld for H&S reasons and had to wait for recovery.

So I assume punctures make up a large number of the 'broken down' vehicles I see.

I suppose I would expect to see something novel(ish) and vulnerable to running flat, like electric cars in there.

In my experience out of people I know, Audi is the most problematic car I know of. Everything from engine and gearbox failures to electrical sensors. I always assumed they shared many parts with VW, but VWs never seem to be anywhere near as unreliable? :crazy:
