Apparently, in the UK under the Consumer Rights Act which comes into force next week, owners of value depreciated vehicles may be able to come together and collectively sue
Volkswagen AG. Talk is in the media of VW losing billions of Euros/pounds, some even predicting the unimaginable - the end of the German car manufacturer. If this were to actually happen could we see companies like
BMW or even
Nissan cherry picking brands like
Golf, Beetle or
Polo as we saw with the demise here of
Rover with
BMW taking the
Mini brand:?:
If you have a VW collection, you may have understandably woken up this morning feeling a bit like the guy who paid a fortune for
Jimmy Saville's Rolls Royce only to see its value plummet when
Saville's paedophile activities broke to the public.:(
