Insignia wins Euro COTY

[cdxi]

The Insignia has won the European COTY award by 1 point (321 to 320) over Ford's Fiesta. The Golf VI was third.

Apparently, Opel/Vauxhall has not won a Euro COTY for 22 years, with 4 second places in that time.

Look into the politics and voting scheme and you will understand why European Coty is pointless.

And undoubtedly you wouldn't have even mentioned it if it was, let's say, a toyota ;)

And all of those have brought something new to the car industry, a lot of cars copying them.


I think it's good that the Insignia has been recognised as Opel is in deep shit over in the EU

Good stuff, shame we aren’t getting them.

I raised the Insignia's win because this is an Opel based forum and I thought it was appropriate to acknowledge.

If we're talking pointless COTY awards, look carefully into just about all of them...........

The reason I choose those few is because they really didn't display any new attributes ;)

good for you.

the insignia has plenty reasons to have won, its already recieved huge media acclaim. so just go back to your corner.

Its nice to see the Insignia win. Now lets just hope Holden grows some balls and bring it here ;-)

This also bodes well for GM for the many cars that will be based off this platform such as the up coming long over due new Saab 9-5
