Skoda to Spearhead VAG
« on: April 19, 2011, 05:40:03 pm »
Looks like you'll all be driving the Czech Dream Machines soon :grin:

Something I and a few others have known for a long time which is the best badge in VAG :evilgrin:

I particularly like this quote from the VAG CEO

Quote from: Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn
"The Škoda brand stands for driving  pleasure, technology, and quality in a first-rate price/performance  ratio. That is the core of “Simply Clever“. And with this positioning,  Škoda is a strategic spearhead for our Group."

The tip being the best bit as without it the remainder can't do much  :P

Nah, VAG are just finding that they need to make an extra effort to sell more Skoda's for some reason - I wonder why :evilgrin:. It's just marketing.

He did say STRATEGIC spearhead though, which in German during the war basically meant send in loads of men to get killed (strategic spearhead) whilst the important blokes do something else, somewhere else :P
