VW is absolutely smoking their socks. When the rand/ Dollar exchange took a plunge, car prices went up. Now that the rand has strengthened like 20%, the prices haven't come down at all.

Just had a look. R248k for a bloody Base model Polo Comfortline. I paid R40k less 15months ago. 25% increase in such a short time. Madness I tell you.

Look at it this way, you are now able to sell your car for more than you bought it for and the new buyer will still think its a bargain :lol:
