Quote:They're all much of a muchness nowadays I reckon, but those reliability surveys are worth reading. Usually the Japanese brands leading the way and it's often surprising how low down some of the 'Trendy Badge' cars come.Not necessarily. Skoda is just about always in the top ten, if not sitting on the no.1 spot in any given category. The Japanese no longer dominate the reliability results.

I think the truth is it’s hard to buy an unreliable car these days.
Though there are still lemons out there. My pal bought a brand new Ford Transit (OK not a car – but hey) for his business. In the first year he had 8 trips to the dealer to fix faults, and a further 7 the next year. He absolutely hates the thing with a vengeance, has complained bitterly about it, and eventually decided to bite the bullet and trade it in for a Merc van.
