So what does this mean for our action and the thousands of those affected by what has happened?<\/p>\n<p>In short, it means we have to fight them for the justice that the victims deserve.<\/p>\n<h2>Reports are in \u2013 values are down<\/h2>\n<p>Despite what the VW Group are saying, our clients are being told candidly by dealers that their vehicles are worth less as a direct result of the emissions scandal. We knew this would be the case \u2013 a large number of those we act for told us right from the start that they would never buy another VW group car again. Most of those saying these sorts of things weren\u2019t even questioned about it; they freely offered their sentiments off the back of how angry at the whole situation they are.<\/p>\n<p>There are many people who have been buying VW cars for decades having trusted their respectable brand image. Since the emissions scandal, the mindsets of many have completely turned around.<\/p>\n<p>Our clients have been reporting to us over the last few months about their experiences with dealers, and the news is grim. <strong>People are being offered less money for their vehicles because they are affected by the emission scandal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We never doubted for a second that this would happen, even if the VW Group want to deny it for now. It\u2019s simple supply and demand; their brand image has taken a huge hit, and people are not only shying away from affected vehicles, but also from VW Group vehicles on the whole.<\/p>\n<p><em>I\u2019ll be honest \u2013 for a while now I\u2019ve been thinking about purchasing an Audi for myself, but since the scandal has broken out, I\u2019ve definitely reconsidered<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you do about it?<\/h3>\n<p>For the thousands of people we are acting for, <strong><a href=\"\/no-win-no-fee-guarantee\">our group action is well underway<\/a><\/strong>.
