EASY. Audi.
Progress? They've gone from useful saloons with a good ethos of practicality with subtle performance and rally thoroughbred, they now stand on EVERY office forecourt in the UK, A3's through to big A5/A6's for the bigger earners.
Unfortunately they've lost their spark, i love old audis, hate modern ones. They just feel like a MErcedes clone now, but better.
Alfa on the other hand, VERY interested in theri future, I love the Mito and couldnt be beaten at the motorshow this year, I was comapring everything to their style and value. Vauxhall, great new jag-like model for the regular vectra upgrader but we'll see how general motors last.
The WINNER will be the first affordable, practical stylish range of hydrogen vehicles. Think that's going to be Ford, everyone else still to hung up on petrol+diesel... which ISNT the future, regardless of how much is left.
Watch james bond, every car is hydrogen. The subliminals have set in, its just a matter of time. Personally, I would love the HHO technology to be invested in, however it's not going to happen... to many Masons with money in Oil and gas
