    The problem with these surveys is they are not normalised for mileage, generally a car that travels few miles is more reliable, and a granny who owns an apparently very reliable car, is because it spends most of its time in the garage!

      Grannies don’t go online to complete surveys.

      @ even so put an Aygo through the same mileage rigours of say a Company car BMW and it would likely soon fail. Normalising fir mileage evens out the results so 2 failures in 20000miles (2/20000) for a BMW verses 2 failures in 1000miles (2/1000) reveals more realistic results. The Granny reference was for an example to get results…

      ​​​​@@G6EJD Miles are not accurate, calculate how many miles does a 2000h driving, at highway speeds (60mph) and city speeds (like 20mph) do. Both cars do the same work hours, one with 120k miles, the other with 40k miles.

      Well considering we have a Citroen C1 that will tick over 200k miles in the next few weeks, I’m not surprised that the Aygo X (which has the same engine) is proving to be reliable.
      I looked to get one as a replacement, but they are still over £10k even for a 2.5 year old car. Probably should have bought one new considering how well used values are holding up.

      MINI has been rated the 3rd most reliable brand by Consumer Reports in the USA for the past 2 years. They rate higher than even Honda. It’s hard to believe when in years past they where always near the bottom for reliability.

    It seems hard to believe that Mini is more reliable than the Japanese brands and that no Honda car is in the top 10. We have had two Honda Jazz’s now, and they are bulletproof.

    This survey is ridiculous…does it take into account mileage/warranty/service costs? Not to mention manufacturing quality(I’m looking at you Tesla)…
    I Test drove VW Golf, Audi A1 ,Benz A class, BMW series 1 and Lexus LBX. Lexus gave an 11(!!!) year warranty in both mechanical parts and battery. The others only 3-4. I think that tells you everything you need to know.

    In November 2018 I bought an Alfa Romeo Giulietta MultiAir 150ch, I have done over 60,000 km since new with absolutely no problems at all. I have it serviced annually and have travelled all over France from my home in rural Brittany.

      Any car can do 60, 000km without issues. I’ve done 210 000miles that is 336 000km in my Prius. Can you do that kind of miles on Alfa?

    Mini! Dreadful for reliability and repair costs as they age!

    1. @gavjlewis Avatar
      @gavjlewis

      Yes the R series cars are shocking. The F series cars seem to be much better. Considering they are only looking at cars from 2019, then Mini have had at least 6 years to iron out most of the issues before these cars were made.

    These figures seem strange, as anybody who regularly uses motorways, cannot fail to notice the unusual number of BMW’s on the hard shoulders.

    I appreciate your good work here. Is the reliability survey open only to UK residents? I could not get past the location question.

    What a nonsense video! All YouTube mechanics tell us that BMW, Audi and Mercedes are over complicated and unreliable in the long term (beyond warranty). Reliability videos uploaded by car review channels (such as this one) are based on surveys that are not worth the paper they’re written on. Listen to the mechanics folks.

      Totally agree, how any German branded cars can be called reliable now is a joke. Clearly the Japanese build the most reliable cars. Carwow’s reliability survey was more in depth and scientific

    For me I think still Japanese cars are the best, and Hyundai is up there too

    It doesn’t surprise me that Japanese Cars/Manufacturers dominate reliabilities surveys but no mention of Stellantis products – Peugeot? Citroen? Alfa?

    Premium brand car owners always tend to hide issues with their cars… It’s a classic 🙂
