They do not buy Volkswagen automobiles,  are an excrement

I don't think I'd want to own a Volkswagen myself, but they do have their
good points. Good gas mileage, don't have to worry about antifreeze,
goes great in the snow, and pretty reliable for a foreign job. (Though
for me this doesn't make up for their being noisy, underpowered, cramped,
uncomfortable, and having lousy heaters.)

Witty, pithy, and completely incomprehensible.  Are you French?

I was mistaken about the spelling.  I learned the word very long ago and
don't know how I came to assume it was spelled that way.

You could have looked it up in a dictionary before posting... Online

the origonal poster did not post only to audi , they posted to a load of
newsgroups, why anyone would actually start talking about such nonsense is
sad , no offence to those who replied . vw is one of the most respected
manufacturers in the world, i am one of the makers of the new audi cd
www.audi cd.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk  and i and my team am working on a new vw
cd , tey have so much history and innovations, , anyway as i am rushed i
will put the last post clear , my team confirmed, vw own , audi (which owned
d.k.w. horch wenderer. n.s.u. ) worked with mercedes benz .own  lamborgini,
buggatti ,bentley, skoda, seat, cosworth, worked with tresser , porsche

Agreed, bentley and porsche aren't what they used to be, and Audi never
was :)

there is no Skoda group to defend the marque, they are all to busy out
driving to sitt infront of a computer screen for hours.

WOW....

Troll - One

Chevy truck ng - Zero (I think he won that round)

And maybe instead of saying oh I remember blah blah blah about VW. How about
getting off your duff and going to a dealership to test drive a new TDI with
leather. I think 50 mpg/city and 70 mpg/higway isn't anything to sneeze at,
while you go pay $2.50/ gal for your blood sucking big block. Don't get me
wrong I've got a 454 in my wheeler too but I damn well do not drive it
everyday.

it was a joke.

I assume you are posting from the US being able to afford to run 454, so
you won't have seen the rebuilding of skoda as a brand. They are now
budget concious version of VW models all across europe.

The Fabia vRS sporty small hatchback is actually based on a Polo with
the new PD130 engine. Very fine turbo diesel engine.

I have driven the 2 litre turbo Petrol Octavia vRS which is basically a
reclothed Golf GTTi 180 with a boot/trunk instead of a small hatch, and
the fabia is a far smaller car with a as torquier an engine.

ooops, sorry to insult you.

Not that I have anything against Americans as people as a whole, just
certain ones (they know who they are), but I think being american
carries certain stigmas, and risks these days wether you are guilty of
anything or not.

Cute.  He was referring to the fact that VW does *not* own Porsche, but
does own the other three...

I knew, don't the Pieche family currently own Porsche and have a large
stake in VAG?

Clearly VW does not own Porsche but strong links do go back a long way.
After all, who designed the original Volswagen (now known as the Beetle)?
