Autotrader reliability article

Has anyone seen this?

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/articles...med?atcido=rss

"Prestigious manufacturers fell foul of reliability woes, with BMW, Rover, Audi, Peugeot, Vauxhall, MG, Saab, Renault, Alfa Romeo and Land Rover in the bottom ten."

first of all... since when was Rover, Peugeot, Vauxhall, MG and Renault considerred "Prestigious"...

and how did Rover even make the list? Surley there is none left with any warrenty for them to get a comparission for?

Mate .... All they've done is list the bottom 10, but expressed the fact that the list also includes prestigious manufacturers such as BMW ..... As well as the expected Rover - Vauxhall etc

As for the warranty side - I'm fairly sure that they'll take into consideration warranties sold with second hand cars or bought seperately. That would then make the issue with Rover reliability relevant as claims will still be being made.
