Please educate me, I spent two years in Germany, but did not have a car, so it was only when I came home that I found this site.

When I arrived in Germany, the military had some office at the airport and we had a briefing before being sent our various ways. The gentleman told us that Opel was owned by GM.

You say Skoda is VW and Aygo is Toyota?

Is there more of this madness or some reason for it?

I finally bought a sun visor for my Civic (I was so happy to have one!) and their service department had a table comparing their service prices to major chains. I believe their point was that they were competitive, but only on average. It was weird to see that another place charged much more for one service, but much less for another. I believe that they showed $489 for a timing belt replacement. I can only wonder what additional fees were excluded.

People act like the service department at a dealership is the epitome of technical ability, because they are the best of the best of the best, Sir! I would not know, I have never used them!
