Not all Audis are based on VW platforms. And how will you defend the Countryman-based next gen X1 without sounding hypocritical? One could argue that a VW is a far better base on which to build than a Mini. And then there's BMW's tie-up with Toyota. Better hope BMW does the bulk of the chassis engineering in that relationship.
