What's the most reliable.....
Jump to: Newest in thread
car you have ever owned and what's was the most unreliable one. My most reliable was a Toyota Yaris never cost me a penny and our worst was a Renault grand scenic, spent thousands on repairing it.
Have a lovely day all.  |

Most reliable - current car, Renault Sport Tourer, 2012 model
Least reliable - my first car, Vauxhall Corsa, M reg. It had some kind of electrical/alternator/battery fault that no-one could fix and so I learned to roll start it literally everywhere  |

I’ve had 8 Ford Focuses (Foci?) and I’ve never had one go wrong on me, the biggest heap I ever had was a Volkswagen Sharan, great fun if you like lying in the snow in sub zero temperatures on New Years Eve replacing a blown turbo and head gasket. |

Isn't the collective noun for Ford Focus the "dad"?
A Dad of Focuses?! |

That's an oddly specific thing to enjoy. What if you only enjoy doing that on New Year's Day? |

Have had 3 Honda CRV. ??????
Did have Range Rover Sport diesel. Timing chain failed at 34K . Lucky had extended warranty . Once fixed sold back to JLR dealership from where purchased. This due to when purchased. Dealership not carried out checks they said were done. I did not lose as much money as would have done if traded in , sold privately. |

For most of my life I have tended to drive cars that are mechanically easy to fix - either bangers or classics - and so have usually been able to solve most of my troubles myself.
My idea of a good holiday when the kids were younger was to take the VW bus somewhere - preferably a long way away. No matter what condition the bus was when we left it was always running fine by the time we got back. The kids didn’t always appreciate the “quality” time we spent “stopped” somewhere  |

It was an experience I’d never like to repeat, took a while to get the feeling back into my fingers. |

Funnily enough I lend my current Focus to my dad yesterday and his words were ‘it’s bloody fast that thing!’  |

I’m 6ft 5 so sports cars are a no for me, my ex had a Mercedes SLK that I just about needed a tin opener to get out of. |

Least reliable - Every car I’ve owned. I even had a brand new car that broke beyond repair after 3 months.
Most reliable - I’ll let you know when I buy it. |

This is why estate cars were invented! I bought one with a turbo and sports trim to fool myself that it's not a Mum-mobile and tour bus |

It’s also why I got the Focus with the 2.3 litre engine |
