Buying a new car has always been a big issue for many of us, especially us who lives in a crooked up country. Anyway, reliability is the most important thing, and as always manufacturers will provide warranties and 1-to-1 exchange on certain critical parts when under the warranty. Also, the car has to have features to impress potential customers, and the latest would be the car’s potential mileage, as world’s crude oil price skyrockets.

But how do we know that all these facts and figures provided by the manufacturers are trustable? Well at least a Volkswagen dealer is brave enough to demonstrate how durable the German’s car is, by recording his stunts and upload ‘em all to YouTube. Quite a demonstration of the sturdiness of this Golf GTI actually, I’m sure a Saga couldn’t stand such an abuse.

An innocent GTI was subjected to a few full-force door slams. That’s cringe-worthy enough in our book, but the wayward salesman wasn’t quite done. He then proceeded to use the full force of his body weight to jump up and down on the open driver’s door.

While we appreciate a dealer’s desire to prove how well the vehicles he sells are built, we wouldn’t want that done to our own cars. I feel sorry to the would-be owner of that car.
