VW Emissions Scandal - The Effects
richtung:
Due to the huge sums (in terms of fines / compensation) that are being written about in the press, I can see a detrimental impact to VW's F1 entrance. Would be a shame as it would be good to see VW (or one of its brand) break into F1.

Gaz:
VW spend more in other motorsports than Mercedes spend in F1, and get MUCH less £ worth of media coverage for the money! Mercedes coverage was valued at WAY more than they spent. Its not a fun thing for them, its business and advertising!
Id love to see VAG in F1!

Lots of good information there.
Note that the BMW X5 35d also goes over nox limits in one of the tests.
Doesn't bother me at all personally.
it's just american pushing out european diesels
quite happy to spew around in cummins diesel powered pickups running 50psi of boost and plooms of smoke.

Just read this bit on the link you posted.
"The software was designed to conceal the cars’ emissions of the pollutant nitrogen oxide, which contributes to the creation of ozone and smog. The pollutants are linked to a range of health problems, including asthma attacks and other respiratory diseases.
So how long until vw gets sued by somebody once they've had an asthma attack then?
