i got told yesterday by a very reputable source(who knows)that hyundai dont read this site-they arnt interested in our thoughts and they dont read it OR EVEN RECOGNISE IT! after all the effort we put in on auto express too and other times we've stuck up for this brand.........any suggestions-such as a mass visit to hyundai uk?

yer why not, get LiDl to make us signs

Hyundai did that with the TSiii and everyoone just winged about that, they tried the eiback lowering springs and that and everone just called them crap

it does come back to what i said that sometimes car makers dont even want to acknowledge they made a car!! but more important what can we do to get noticed-well put by the way glyn

I'll be honest, unless the reputable source was the CEO of hyundai he cannot say for certain that they don't read or recognise the site.

Aside from that, car forums are mainly to build a community that can help and advise each other and generally have a laugh i thought?!
Many companies, large and small have people dedicated to floating around websites to gather data about what people want, then they will make the best compromised decision between what the people want and what is cost effective. People slating dealers because of prices etc won't change marketing research one way or another.

thats ok keep it coming mate nice to have newbies in on the conversation!

In something like this then averages count for nothing. A supermarket chain such as tesco for example probably has nearer 95% repeat customers, whereas an estage agents may have as low as 1-2% which would make the average 48.5%...not particularly accurate for either.

EDIT: none of that is meant in an offensive way lol. Just clarifying things.
