VW makes nice cars, but at the top they have a very nasty track record. Stubborn, greedy and ready to cheat.

1997 they were ordered to.pay GM/Opel 100 million dollars and also buy 1 billion dollars worth of parts from GM  in a case that involved VW poaching of 7 key GM executives and the theft of secret GM trade secrets.

In 2007 VW execs got caught in a bribery scandal and two execs went to prison for it.

Now they get caught cheating on emissions output worldwide and their lapdogs howl about everything except what VW did wrong. Sick.
