      We have Volkswagen and Skoda at our place and there are a lot of common parts under the skin. The towbar electrics module I added to the Skoda is badged Audi.

        I thought skoda is just Eastern European for VW? In 2000 all of the cabs in Israel were skoda which were just rebranded jettas.

          Different models, not a straight badge swap. Loads of platform & parts sharing between the companies though.

        I wasn’t talking about skoda/Audi/seat/Volkswagen because those are similar. I was using different examples to prove my point that not “all” things owned by same company is the same shit

        Notice in my example they are all VAG brands but make completely different types of vehicles.

        You missed the point completely.
