The costs for VW are going to be massive. I have seen numbers ranging up to US$86 billion (http://www.cnet.com/news/report-vw-s...horizon-spill/), and those numbers don't include the impact of class action lawsuits - many of which have already been filed. OTOH, the fear owners of a major negative impact to resale value of this debacle seem to have been over-blown - with some indication resale prices for TDI VWs have actually gone up (http://www.cnbc.com/2015/10/01/volks...ty-online.html). Perhaps they're speculating on the possibility VW may have to replace some of the cars, nor repair or alter them.

"US$86 billion"

What is the base for such a penatly, I wonder? Did somebody die?
I would file for bancruptcy then and only build Bugattis..

Diesel emissions seem to be complicated. My expertise is on the petrol side.
