This Information has been appearing in the Press with regard to the VW company in the US removing about 25 percent of it's 475,000 2.0L TDI vehicles from the road in the nearly fourth months since the buyback program began. This "Parking Place" is in the Old "Silverdome" Stadium the former home of the NFl's Detroit Lions and a lawsuit has been filed against the owners of the dilapidated Pontiac Silverdome, where thousands of VW diesel models are being stored after the company bought them back from customers - Dave :shock:

I don't see why they just can't be sold with their emissions figure changed to whatever's actual. Seems a total waste to scrap them!

Ship some of it to the third world or something. Surely not all will go to the crusher!
