Send an answer to a topic: Mass change model info thread

Subject
List of Smileys	[quote=antp,64833]I meant indeed for the other similar-named Jeep models, so I do not have to rewrite the query. That's not much for the time (as indeed it takes me less time to do that than it takes for people who do the request do the search of info), but more for the risk of mistake on my side. Each time I do a mass change there is a slight risk if I make a mistake in the query on the server, as it is done directly on the server it can have big consequences. There is a daily backup, so in worse case there is less than a day lost. But that's still a big loss. (once we lost like that a few hours of comments, as I had to restore the backup of that part) I know you may feel unrewarded, well, that happens to everyone at some point :/ I have no magical solution unfortunately...[/quote]

But we don't have dual-flags (and it defeats the purpose of specifying a country anyway).
If you want I can make a mass-update if you provide either the list of Cargo versions or the list of Passenger versions.
Otherwise I can switch all to Spain, as it is the closest to reality that we can get without manual picking, and I find that better than just remove completely the info.

Just list them as being from Spain. Cargo Vans are only taken apart in Spain then brought to the USA where their put back together in South Carolina.

If it is dismantled and then rebuild, what count as "made in"? First or second assembly location?
And if the Cargo should be listed as US-built, we need to update them one by one, depending if it is Cargo or Passenger version.

As previously stated I merged the Spainish and American flags together for such the occasion

So you mean that they should all be listed as "Made in Spain"? (as indeed even the Cargo version is not really made in USA...)

Sure but the Cargo Van is rebuilt in the US

Passenger Vans are directly imported from Spain
Cargo Vans are built in Spain, then shipped to the US separately from their powertrains, where they are put back together in South Carolina (I made a flag for the build situation of the Cargo Van)

Should we add that to the Jetta A7s on the site? Right now they are blank.

I guess so, I'll add it, we can always change it later easily if other info appears

I have a question about VW Jetta A7, when I googled the model code, it came back as:

"The seventh-generation Volkswagen Jetta uses the model code A7 (internally designated as Typ BU)"

And I found another article using that code:

https://automotive24.center/article/volkswagen-jetta-vii-typ-bu-mqb-specifications-engines-transmissions-and-dimensions

Should we add that to the Jetta A7s on the site? Right now they are blank.

For all "Peugeot DK 5", model is "DK5"

For a lot of models we added a space between letters and numbers, but indeed for this one there is maybe no use of splitting after "DK", since there are no other numbers than 5.
