You don't buy a car for speed, it's a utilitarian box. For going to the tip and holidays with the family. If you want speed and handling buy a motorcycle, £1500 would get you a 180 mph missile sub 4 second 0-60 but most people can't control that. People have opinions but to have a true balanced one, own both, a German motor and a dacia. As a Mechanic, German motors are living on past glory. Some people just want a car to go A to B not fussed or care with how they are perceived. the reality is far to many people buy a badged motor and actually can't afford to run it, many German cars have electronic issues along with mechanicals, they just want the badge. Go to a breakers yard and see what's missing from various brands.

I got a laureate prime sandero from new in 2015 returns 64mpg, costs me £70 a year to service, slightly different each year depending on requirements. Simple nut and bolt stuff. It's only got 31000 miles on it. Lots of my friends drive German cars, but I just laugh when they take theirs to the garage.......German badge= inflated prices. Can't deny they look better inside, CAR magazine's phase of yogurt pot plastics regarding the dacias interior is apt. But it's a car, it goes A to B not wasting money on cars, they are money pits. Great if you don't mind spending money on cars but they all do the same thing. Sit in traffic. I just prefer to spend my money elsewhere.........
