What Car? has today published the results of its latest reliability survey based on the feedback of almost 13,000 UK owners.
"The poll asked the thousands of car owners if their motor had gone wrong in the past 12 months, how long repairs took and how much they cost.
An overall reliability score was then given to each brand and model, dictating where it stands in the reliability league table of the latest vehicles.
Only cars up to five years old were covered in the survey."
