Car of the Year
"); document.write("How is it that the car of the year is always not a car that should be promoted to the man in the street that needs a good car You look at the car of the year , year after year and you will not see that a relayable car good manufactures car get the award Why? alwals the car that no one should buy. Honda with its financial problems how can you ask the public to buy a car that may not be on the market in a few years time or buy a car that the trade in will be so bad that you can not sell the dam thing I think all the personson involved with the selection should go away and never comes back Let us the real car buyer pick the car base on real car value and reliability cars like Merc Toyota why is it that they never get the car of the year award? . Johan Bosch"); document.write("
COTY
"); document.write("Great choice, real value for money. R100k less than a Merc that offers you the same and much more appealing than a boring Toyota. And implying that Honda is not reliable is just plain ignorance. . ADB"); document.write("
Re: Johan
"); document.write("Freakin' hell Johan, check your grammar and spelling before posting, maybe one can then make sense of what you're trying to say. Craai"); document.write("
Ditto
"); document.write("Just to echo Craai's sentiments about Mr Bosch's posting: 1) Please don't just post unreadable drivel - reread it and correct errors before posting. 2) Honda is probably THE most reliable car brand on the market, as proved by the JD power survey year after year. 3) Nothing wrong with Toyota and Merc, but they are often the \"safe\" default choice of non car enthusiasts, which I surmise you are, Mr Bosch, based on your comments..

Too early???
"); document.write("Help me guys, why is 2009 car of the year announced in March and not at the end of the year? This doesnt make sense to me, its like appointing a man of the match before the game started!. Willem"); document.write("
Willem
"); document.write("Because they have to have been launched between \"21 October 2007 and 31 October 2008\" which means they're gonna be marketed and sold more towards the end of 2009. Its not about what car being phased out, it's also about guiding consumers to buy the right car. Not for consumbers to be told after the match that you're have been watching Hull vs West Brom instead of Man United vs Liverpool. To use your words, the have to announce the man of the match at half time to shield the viewers from continuing to watch.. Phizar@yahoo.com"); document.write("

"); document.write("Mr. Bosch is unfortunately a typical South African, with all due respect Mr. Bosch you are rather uninformed about cars. Toyota is simply not value for money anymore and their cars are just unimaginative and they just ride their past reputation. The previous generation corolla is something only its mother could love. Mercedes is much of the same their quality is so bad that they had to drive 19 E class cars to China to prove their quality. Its simply the status of owning the car not to mention their designs don’t age well just look at the rip off of the BMW design for the C class.. Mr. V"); document.write("
