General Car Chat / Poor quality or poor memory?
« on: 02 October 2014, 20:53:42 »
During the course of my work I come into close contact with many varied vehicles of all sorts of ages,and I have noticed that either materials/fittings in some are apparently getting worse.In the new shape Micra I have seen all too many with the drivers carpet worn through to the flooring with anything from 6 to 9,000miles on the clock!Another one I seem to be seeing more of is cars fitted with keep fit[as opposed to electric]windows in the rear doors appear to suffer with the window dropping just fractionally,the worst culprit for this ime is the present Fiesta and the previous two versions,although others are beginning to show these signs also.So is it poorer quality/cheaper/flimsier materials that are being used?Or is it just my failing memory whereby I don't remember these things happening in days past?
