Wow what pointless tat.

BL/Rover grouped as one, big surprise. Despite the fact Rover built cars before and after British Leylands existence.


Good to see that Ford and GM's Vauxhall badged cars are still counted as British rofl

Indeed I don't get the hate for any manufacturer really.

Fair enough there are manufactures whose products do not appeal to me but that in itself is not enough reason to hate them.

As Rover is grouped with BL by default that must include Jaguar, Land Rover, Triumph, Morris, MG, Austin and probably a couple of others too.

The word "unscientific" isn't needed in the title.

Sensible hasn't been here in years, let alone scientific!!!!!

The groups are how I would class the cars, it's not set in stone and I would argue that a Ford Sierra is and always will be a UK/Euro car NOT an American car every day of the week, up to you if you have your own ideas. It doesn't change the results however and what people listed as 'crap' were generally stated as being not the most reliable of things. I guess Audi could be grouped with VW, meh it's just a graph becuase I was bored!

Dunno, the results didn't include one..its not an all inclusive list of all st cars ever made just some that people owned and disliked. It amuses me how mad people get at Rover doing so badly in this yet there is no uproar about VW? It is also interesting that no matter how poor some manufacturers are their cars are alomost universally loved. Nobody who ran an Alfasud in the 70's was left with much to show apart from a pile of scrap yet only fond memories remain. The bigger crime is the car without character that is also a bit crap wink
