exactly... as i said.. for performace matched with reliability you cant beat Jap...

[Nezmond]

Owned both, as said before the reliability is faultless on jap cars (only owned hondas, none of the others) and the engines are a scream.

If you want something to chew up the miles without too many problems then they are both great!!

On experience i still prefer jap cars but i havent owned my audi for long

Why have you bought an audi then.Dont take it the wrong way but thats an odd statement if you prefer honda then honda is what you buy

I have done the same. You won't know what owning something else is like unless you try it

The Honda I wanted was out of my price range so the Pasty seemed like a good 2nd choice, or was it third er fourth anyway you get my drift.

The next honda i want to buy is an s2000, so it may be a few years yet, so that was exactly my thinking, ive had the hondas and they are great but i fancied a change so as nissans and toyotas for the most part are dull the next obvious choice was the vag group.

Grabbed myself an a3 and i love it so far So its a good decision at the minute!!

I've driven a couple of jap cars, a Honda Accord and a Suzuki Swift (both 1995). I have to say, the Honda lacked feel through the steering wheel and rusted quite bad. The Swift was very reliable but made out of paper. I curently own my fisrt VAG car in the form of a MK3 Golf TD, which has turned out to be a little belter. My signature says it all really, it's been extremely reliable. I've never had to fix anything (apart from obvious wear and tear), it gives great MPG, the body work is solid and the interior is so well screwed together that there isn't a creak in it anywhere, even after 145,000 miles. Even after me perfomring a few 'skills' on the local beach and driving it hard through the rev range, it still remains a solid reliable car. I can't fault it really in any way.

There was once that saying, "If only everything in life was relaible as a Volkswagen". Which is very very ture.

VAG cars rule!!!!

The S2000 looks sounds and is a superb car. In my top 10

Aye, a mate of mine has got one. He has since buying it added a supercharger kit/IC/Xorst/CAI kit etc etc...

Now pushin circa 380bhp... Tis a beast to say the least!

I have road tested the R8 and S5 this week after preping them for the showroom and there are no jap cars that even come close to the new models being launched this year and next year.Me thinks the japs will always play catch up to german design and build quality,not to mention desirability.O the R8 kicks *** big time
