What's the WORST car you've ever owned?
 

Mine was a 1990 Ford Fiesta 1.1 CVT.

Truly awful car.

Renault 5 GTL 1300 ( 1st car ) snapped the torsion bar trying to go too fast around a corner :D

Lancia Delta Integrale Evo, the car was fantastic but they are a rust bucket and its hard to keep on top of the rust with any Lancia in our climate.

My 1st one... A Brown vauxhall Chevette with upgraded 13" Wolfrace wheels :lol1:

Vauxall Cresta PB Automatic. Always going wrong, rarely started and drank fuel. Always fancied a PA Cresta (great shape) but never got one.

Red Renault Megan 1.6, ended up with a cracked head. Never liked the thing. Before that had a Astra Sport 1.8 which I loved.

C5 2.0 HDi Estate ...

Spent more time at the (useless) dealer than at home...

Must be a trend going on here, but from an embarrassment point of view a brown chevette with upgraded carb and seats.

From a reliability point of view it has to be a Renault Clio 16v, it was 12 months old, the gear selector for reverse snapped, the brakes warped, the electric windows stopped working it used loads of oil, the list goes on! I had it for 10 months and swapped it for a new MY97 impreza turbo. Now that was one of the best I have ever owned.

rover 214 sei head gaskets as per usual bloody rovers...........:mad:

2.0 ltr Cavalier GL

Lot of French cars being posted !?

A 1995 Ford Fiesta 1.3LX, brake like sponges, suspension like jelly, seats that were designed to make you as uncomfortable as possible and sweat as much as possibile and the highly overpowered power steering.

Nova 1.2 wobbled around like a jelly. bought it as a run around for a few months and that was long enough!

5t.

1990 Ford Orion ghia 1.6i


truely SHOCKING electrics

Leon 20VT Cupra .. part component keep breaking away. The engine itself is good.

Had to spend over £1k on repair alone on first year alone so got rid of it.

05 honda civic typr R

A 1987 Mk4 Escort 1.6 Automatic that was past it's best when I bought it:rolleyes: But I needed a car in a hurry and it was cheap:)

It was considerably further past it's best when I sold it 7 months later for what paid for it:D

Beige 950cc Mk1 Fiesta :(

55 plate Vauxhall Astra SRI, what aload cr@p.

1997 Astra 1.4.

Old car blew up 2 days before starting new job. Bought 2nd hand astra from nearest garage to work, during my lunch hour. Hated it with a passion. Sold it 1 year later, after being overtaken by a hearse going up a hill. Trade in value badly affected by dents in drivers door from drivers boot.

106 GTI

Head gasket twice and it wasn't like I thrashed it.

Idled at 300-3000rpm when it felt like it (numerous sensors, software updates, etc didn't fix)

Sadly, a cracking car when it worked :( Which wasn't often.

:cry: A "DATSUN BLUEBIRD" :lol1: It was awful... It was like a off colour white with a few patches (Body Filler)..
BUT NOW i have a scooby:luxhello: Wooo Hoooooo

renault 19 16v and all 5 of them that i owned

Rover Coupe Turbo.

Lovely looking car, but cost a fortune to replace all the bits that kept going wrong.

F plate Ford Escort XR3i. Dashboard would just decide 2 seconds before I jumped in whether or not to work, mostly not. Absolute P.O.S.

The current beater! A 1997 Fiesta 1.something! I've sat in it a few times when the g/f is driving trying to find ANYTHING, no matter how small about it that I like. There is nothing. Not a single switch, characteristic, or part of the car!! I like nothing about it at all.

Clio 172

Utter Cr@p.

Austin Allegro

^^^^^^ Here here - also known as a hovercraft for it's fine handling!

1996 peugeot 106 1.5 diesel escapade level 2. supposed to be a special edition. wtf. do a search 0-60 nearly 17 secs. i couldnt beat a van off the line:(

besides that ive only owned three scoobs since passing my driving test last year.
