VAG drivers?

[HavocXphere]

Someone riddle me this...

People on this forum keep referring to the cars as VAG(s). e.g.

are VAG drivers! Roux is going to love this ....

Why?

Volkswagen AG refers to the corporate entity. So it's the equivalent of saying "What are you drinking? I'm drinking a Coca-cola company".

Same problem with Volkswagen Audi Group if that's what is meant.

So what am I missing here? Or is this just a case of people trying (and failing) to sound clever?

It is Volkswagen AG, AG being the German (Pty) Ltd.

I know that & said as much in my post. Doesn't answer the question though.

Do you see people claiming to be driving a "Rolls Royce corporation"? No, they drive a Rolls Royce.

The word VAG makes me think inappropriate thoughts!

RWD and Quattro VAGs have a tranny tunnel.

Also leaning towards this until a reasonable explanation comes along, by the way I am a GM driver, soon to be PSA, or whatever....

It's a play on the word vagina if that wasn't already obvious...

 

[SYNERGY]

And I always think Vagina drivers

That's why Brazilian ones are bare, some don't even come with a radio.

VAG drivers are most di*ks

BTW there is a forum called VAG fanatics. I just subscribe to playboy.

With all the problems they have, i am not surprised they had to form a support group. (SPANX)

It's just a term that encompasses cars built on virtually the same platforms.

So encompassing Audi and Volkswagen generally as in Polo = A1, Golf = A3, Jetta = A4, Q3 = Tiguan etc.

Porsche can be thrown in sometimes as well but outside of the Macan and Cayenne they are generally quite different.

Ultimately it comes from the point of view that if you are having issues with your A3 then the very same issues would apply to the Golf and so it's a VAG problem.

Of course it can also be used in a derogatory fashion for it's namesake.
