Nowadays, many car brands are bringing in smaller models, ie. Audi A1, Volkswagen Polo GTI etc.

 

More people are turning to compact Continental cars, instead of buying Japanese/Korean family sedans.

 

What do you think are the reasons for the popularity in compact Continental cars?

Buy car must see the cheap price.

Now conti small cars are super value for money!!

The safety features and engine technology....you can only dream in a Jap car of the same price.

To give the image of a yuppie lifestyle

 

To tell people you drive a conti

 

To tell people that I have not really made it yet but I am up and coming

 

To pay lower road tax and get same power using the super and turbo charge route

 

Because I cannot afford a Audi A5, BMW 325, or Passat 4motion

my answer is i won't buy a compact car if i can help it, continental or not.....becos basic physics laws still apply in accidents, n to be better protected, i'd rather my family n me r in a heavier, sturdier car. [cool]

Is that what you think? That the entry level Conti cars are for people to show off that they can afford a Conti badge?

Sure can pack, but in terms of comfort, the jap luxury range is better compared to a compact conti. I think compact continentals are cater more towards the driver instead of the passengers.
