which would you say is the worst Car Manufactorer on the road at the moment. I would say Proton, Lada it was Kia, Hyundai and Daewoo but they all have improved alot over the last 3-4 years.
Or Citroen, Peugeot, Renault, don't get me started... ... are we looking for the worst car maker, or the maker of the worst car?
i'm not picking on proton because they are cheap i mean look at the new proton GEN 2 it got 1/5. Need i say more and that is off several car mags. Renault, Peugeot are far better.
we've owned loads of French cars in the past and they have all been totally reliable. we had a 2000 Peugeot 406 HDI with 130,000 Miles totally reliable. 2001 Renault Scenic Totally Reliable
but you wanted to know what I would say You didn't expect us to agree did you and wasn't Mercedes at the bottom of the JDPower survey... blimey, wait till cooler joins in
It's nothing new, ttkom. Even back here in M'sia there's been much of a headache for owners of the Gen.2. My colleague who bought one had had his engine stalled (lost of power/functionality) three times in the past 3 months. I guess it'll really take time before they really improve here. Thus most people would still buy the Wira, Waja or Iswara instead. Not sure what their names are in the UK though.
i think the name Proton is still the same in England... coz i saw it being the sponsor for Norwich City football team... and oh gosh, would that spell doom for the Canaries?

Indeed Neil, wait till Cooler finds this one. Agree with TVR but what about Lotus? Lot's Of Trouble, Usually Serious.
*chuckles*, you guys are too much I think i've said quite enough on cars already and won't be bashing people heads on the spot, if i can help it. Every brands of auto has its lemons. Some worst ones improves while some good ones slides so it is hard to say which car maker is worst(or the best). You have to give time and price range. The questioner should refer to the sticky thread of how to ask question. It's no different from asking which brand of racket is the best or the worst.
I mean the Proton GEN 2 is not a bad looking car it's just a shame it don't perform as well as it looks. I can think of a Worse car. Dill and Neil Nicholls will know which one i mean lol The City Rover is abysamal. It was orignainally an indian car. Rover must really be on a tight budjet.
I dont think there is a worst car manufacturer. Maybe there is a bad car that comes out in each manufacturers. Proton cars are generally ok.. Satri Gti was a good car.. now coming out with its Limited Edition R3 version. We cant say that generally Proton is a bad manufacturer. Kia , Hyundai , Honda , Renault and other european manufacturers does have their bad and good cars as well.
To a Citroën collector, that is nothing short of a declaration of war! Now, British cars on the other hand...
