    I doubt this is for a long term though ... Toyota cut down worldwide productions by heaps due to GFC but they can easily ramp up productions again once global economy improves?

    But hey we shall enjoy the glory while it lasts!!

      Volkswagen AG has produced more vehicles than Toyota Motor Co. for 3 Qtr of the calender year i'd wait till January before celebrating.

      and for how long GM and Toyota are restructuring once this is complete it will be topsy turvy for a while.

          Hmm I don't know that it is such a good thing.

          Not exactly a stellar list, is it?

                How True...I have had my V6 Highline for 8 weeks (after waiting 6 months) and everybody that looks at it, or I tell them that i have a Passat, looks at me as if to say what the? Then i explain its a VW and the next reaction is usually..."didnt know you could still buy them in Australia...".

                  Haha for real? I might get a weird look when I tell them I have a VW. Once they find out it's a Diesel, that a whole other story.

                    hahahaha....

                    It seems a report published by IHS Global Insight last Thursday was a little premature, with official numbers today showing Toyota is still ahead of Volkswagen in sales volume.

                      Heh... Dodgy dodgy dodgy. Still doesn't change the fact that Toyota is still purely uninspired white goods for the most part.
                      Even a turbo-diesel Jetta is more inspired...

                        Thanks for the kind words but it doesn't take much to be better than a Toyota. Coming from a Golf driver though, I can understand your point of view.

                          I actually prefer a bit of exclusivity
