Replying to: 2001gs430 (Apr 21, 2008 5:28 am) Europeans and foreigners espeically taxi drivers know the longetivity of cars far better than us North American folks who tend to dispose of our things far too fast. Taxi drivers are forced by economics to pick German cars that will still exist after hundreds of thousands of miles of driving. Simple economics prevails in their decision. Has anybody here noticed how many old VWs there are out there on our roads?Where ever I look I see old BMWs and Benzes here in Canada and overseas. There's a very good reason for that and it is because durability is one attribute that German auto makers excel in. Who on earth would want to keep an unreliable VW for over 10 years? I myself would like to know why since longetivity and unreliability should be highly correlated but apparently that is not the case.
