In the “-Thread the question came up again: The natural consequence question is: Where can you find out which used cars cause the lowest possible nervousness? Like probably many others here in the forum, I am constantly asked what to buy – most have already decided on the question, or already what in the head. As a rule, it is not enough to say: “No, don’t buy Chrysler LeBaron in the 80s”, but you have to give your argument a little “meat.” In my opinion, the TÜV statistics are at the forefront, together with, among others, the Swedish Bilprövningen, who publish the corresponding figures. Sure, the weighting of small forgetfulness such as light bulbs and real production weaknesses like permanently emptied track rods etc. is not available. In addition, the TÜV data are also a judgement about the car maintenance and maintenance spread of the owners. Imho however, this is no more than a background noise, because the almost e Number of vehicles that get through here, and the wonderful bonus that everyone has to get through the TÜV – so there is no voluntaryness here like in surveys (JD Powers) or tows (ADAC) – raise the quality of the numbers enormously. So: What is your “reliable” statistics? How do you do if you are to give advice or want to find out for yourself whether a car for which you are interested will reliably fulfill its tasks according to expectations – or make a lot of trouble?
