And I disagree with you.

The average car buyer is not concerned about emissions.

Further, emission is a byproduct of mpg.

“3 Nov 2015
VW's investigation finds that CO2 emissions and fuel consumption figures are also affect”

5 coworkers that turned their cars in did it because they weren’t getting the advertised mpg which was a valid part of the voluntary recall.

It was a whistleblower that exposed everything and not because 5 workers turned their cars in

My car was affected and we are currently taking class action in the UK courts as the EU failed for enforce a recall. That said you are now drawing the correlation btw mpg and emmissions which is true but my correction is on your erroneous statement that it was mpg.

The regulatory authorities are not interested in that and all the independent testing was not on mpg. Take note.

Really? Are you sure that it’s not my 5 coworkers that caused billions in losses to VW?

Not sure why lame brains are drawn to my post sad

Yeah I took note. I took. It’s that you’re close minded and unable to reason even when presented with evidence.

Over political correctness is killing US. They want to kill a giant company employing thousands of Americans just because of slight carbon emission differentials in VW cars. How much more carbon emissions they get from their wild fires? They punished VW just because it's a German company. See Detroit with its mass of closed down companies. Let them kill the companies with levies and see unemployment and hunger rise in US

You forgot to add that they are all diesels.

Explorers:
Thousands of Reacquired Volkswagen and Audi cars sit in a desert graveyard near Victorville, California.


Shocking images have emerged showing lines of cars stretching out as far as the eye can see in the Californian desert after Volkswagen was forced to buy back 350,000 cars for $7.4billion over the diesel scandal.

The German automaker has been forced to get creative when it comes to responsibly storing the hundreds of thousands of vehicles they had to buy back.

Storage lots include a shuttered suburban Detroit football stadium, a former Minnesota paper mill and the desert site near Victorville, California.

That's why cheats and opportunist like Dangote and other shady Nigerians who masquerade as businessmen cannot run a successful business in the western world.

Don't you know Africa is the waste bin of the world.

If any international company wants to make billions, just target Africa, Nigeria in particular.

You had to apply insults to make your face saving comments .

Your oversabi comments on mpg seems to have embarrassed you. Mpg kor mpg ni. I am sure you did not even know what it meant b4 posting thrash. My correction forced you to start some research and when you saw the link to emmissions you came back to try to save face. Another olodo that claims emmissions scandal was mpg scandal grin. Idirin

Emissions are related to mpg but the mpg stated were not affected by emmission figures given to the authorities.They only put a cheat device to trick regulatory tests on emissions.What is the formula for calculating the relationship btw both? You are so dumb

Emission affect other things as well. Tomorrow this legendary half wit will claim it was ozone layer scandal. grin Ode
