Hi

I must be bored too! How about a sister thread for worst cars we have owned?

I will start it off and see if anyone can beat mine

Embarassing- A Plate- Zastava Yugo in racing red!
Worst Purchase A Plate Mk3 Jaguar XJ6 4.2 that used a gallon of oil per 100 miles!!!

Embarassing- Fiesta 1.8D Van
Worst Purchase Either my Second Cossie or or my Impreza STi WRX.

Hmmm, unfortunately in terms of replacement parts costs per mile covered, it has to be my currant car. Hopefully as time goes on the ratio will improve a lot.. Fingers crossed...

Most troublesome car i've had was a volvo s80 2,4 auto. Lpg converted by Hoss and Ben Cartright at ponderosa gas! Never managed to run right afterwards.head gasket blew, repaired, then auto box expired! Sold it for scrap

We had a new Beetle when they came out.Was in the dealers more than it was with us.It lasted 6 mounths.
The worst car was the renault grand espace(the plastic pig).We only got rid of it last saturday,never so glad to see a car go.It was with us for only 4 mounths cost a fortune.It was a case of I told you so to the missus,Which felt good.

Most troublesome car I have ever had was my MG ZT 1.8T but still loved it
