that you have ever owned ----
not had many but my first car a morris ital 1.3 was on a top ten list of worst cars - i really liked it - proper metal bumpers with rubber strip on it - hardly a mark on the body work - |

I have 3 to choose from, you will have to judge which was worst.
My first car was an Austin 1100 that split
across the front between the subframe mounts! My second car was an Austin Allegro (yes having had 1 Austin split I bought a second one).
Having learned my lesson and finding myself cash rich I decided to to buy myself a nice new Italian sports car and in 1978 invested in a really striking looking yellow with a tan interior (it was the 70's!), it fell apart before its first MOT!
Never bought a new car since! |

"Opel manta"
I loved them as a kid. One of our teachers was seeing the son of a rally driver called McRae and he turned up in his rally Opel Manta. When you are 7 that's a big deal 
Mine was a Renault 5 I bought from a friend of the family. Nothing worked. I even had to turn the engine off to put it in reverse  |

"It's a toss up between a Ford Focus 2.0 and a Renault Megane 1.9 DCI. Both were dreadful."
Strange, I had a year 2000 2ltr Focus Ghia given to me and it went like the clappers for 13 years, had the most wonderful torquey engine that would pick up from anywhere, the smoothest ride, and never let me down! |

Having just had a twat back into my 3 week old car I have been given a Kia piccanto now I know it's built to a budget but it is a tin can on wheels a joyless piece of shite I would rather catch the bus
For six grand you would be much better off buying a 3 year old focus I HATE IT can't wait to get my car back |

I had a Peugeot 207 S16 it looked the dogs only 250 we're made. modelled on the 2010 Peugeot rally car
I got rid at 49,000 miles
2 gearbox rebuilds
Piston rings gone
Clutch about to go
Wheel bearing
Was great to drive, handling was amazing better than any car I've driven just didn't have the build quality |

I once had a turbulent affair with a very quirky Citroen XM.....during which time my feelings for the car frequently ranged from absolutely loathing it's very being, to unconditionally loving every single thing about it.....
