<p><a name='more'></a>Volkswagen received and unwelcome reminder of its &#8220;dieselgate&#8221; scandal at the opening of the Geneva motorshow when a protester infiltrating its glitzy launch and tried to fit a “defeat device” to one of the company&#8217;s new cars.<br /><span class="irc_su" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;"> </span><img alt="http://cdn3.spiegel.de/images/image-963526-breitwandaufmacher-pyao-963526.jpg" src="http://cdn3.spiegel.de/images/image-963526-breitwandaufmacher-pyao-963526.jpg" height="238" width="640" /><br /><span class="irc_su" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:x-small;"><i> Photo: Spiegel</i></span></span></p>

But he was interrupted when the Mr Brodkin tried to get under the vehicle, offering “to fix it” – in a reference to the emissions scandal which wiped billions of euros off the company’s value.<br /><span style="font-size:x-small;"><i><br /></i></span><span style="font-size:x-small;"><i>Credit:<a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/03/01/vw-car-launch-crashed-by-dieselgate-protester/" target="_blank"> telegraph</a></i></span></p>

<p>“It’s a brand new car it does not need fixing,” said Mr Stackmann, with security guards slow to react and apparently unaware that the protester was not part of the show. hilarious</p>
