German reliability could be a myth according to Warranty Direct which has found that Audi, Bmw and Volkswagen have some of the least reliable engines amongst its 50,000 consumer policies.
The warranty company found that, in the past year, the only engines to fail more often than Audis were those from the now defunt MG-Rover group. The only German firm to salvage some national honour was Mercedes which had the third most reliable engines.
Top of the table were Honda and Toyota, strengthening the more recently formed view that Japanese manufactured motors are becoming increasingly bulletproof.
Warranty Direct MD Duncan McClure-Fisher said: 'Engine failure are the biggest fear for any motorist as they are the ones that can lead to astronomical costs because of the parts and hours of labour required to fix them'. MG
