Worst Brand..Worst Car

Vauxhall are taking a beating - so I'll add to it. I can't comment on the car, and for purpose it looks ok, but an "Adam"?? Who sat there in a meeting and thought yes, that name works for a car. And nothing against the name Adam, I'd be saying that if it was the Vaux Tom, Jim, Nigel and so on.... .
 
+1 Fiat Multipla. although... Fiat at least tried something "new" with the 3 front seats :roll:
It seems to me that all new Mini models are getting fatter than previous one. Same as Fiat 500. Pretty sickening when you see 10 of them following in a row...

Maybe it was Adam (and Eve) because they predicted a mainly female buyer!! :)

Adam and Eve is actually the only reason I could think of too. Maybe with it being their entry model or whatever. And whatever is the last I'll say of it. Haha
 
Skoda for me...the modern ones...model wise take your pick they are all ugly and bland nowadays, I am not completely anti Skoda as my first car was a Super Estelle 120l rear engined monster and I had some fun in that.

Not keen on modern Toyota`s either I respect they are well built and reliable but they too are very bland and what happened to the days of the MR2, Supra`s and Celica`s, fair enough there is the GT86 but the power that has it would struggle to work a hair dryer!!

Hard to better some of the above however here goes - Mazda 626 - as much driving pleasure as soapy sponge and rusted twice as quickly as any other car around :headbang:

I had one of these a few years back .The top of the range 2.0 litre .When I sold it the mileage was 90k,the person who bought it took the mileage to well over 130k only stopped then due to being rammed by a woman in a Fiesta.
The ride was ok and only corrosion showing was on the wheels.Far more reliable than BMW.
 
Am i the only person that opened this thread expecting Stark to have had a bad porker experience with his new car? Glad it wasnt.. :D
 
Worst Brand Audi. Vaxhual very nearly down there though.

Worst Car S4 B6 Saloon. Pretensious understeering taxi. :thumbsdown:

Have a white one on the route to and from work, driver insist on charging past my little Mazda, every time I'm ahead of him out of the tunnel. wtf, You have double the Bhp mate, take your time and just enjoy it.
 
Well I can honestly say I've never seen a Citroen that I've liked! Lol

I had a saxo VTS many a year ago and it had fault after fault after fault! It was brand new and spent more time at the dealership than on the road! Got rid within 8 months.. The dealer actually took the car back as couldn't solve the issues.... Randomly stalling and cutting out!

Mrs (before we met) also had a VTS saxo back in the day and she had the same issues.... S41T!



I would never buy Shitroen again...

Or could this be the worse car ever:

(That's why it's called an Adam). It's just like the Ferrari Enzo... sort of. I can only assume it sounds less ridiculous to the continentals with their Opels. It kind of looks ok so I'm sure they'd have sold more if Vauxhall had given it a more appropriate name over here. Unfortunately Vauxhall was founded by someone called Alex so not much better :D

The stuff Rover were trying to flog before they finally died are surely up there... had to drive a CityRover once. Wow. The Daewoo "Chevvys" are pretty grim too.

Now I have Skoda Fabia and A Toyota Aygo. I would buy either again in a heartbeat.

The Fabia is the 1.9Tdi. Utterly reliable, perfectly well equipped, cheap to tax, insure and service. 55MPG without effort and 100BHP moves it along well enough for me. I'm on my second and am approaching the 150,000 mile mark in total.

As for the Aygo, well it's a bit slow, but we only use it for short trips. Again, it's very well equipped. Never missed a beat in 5 years, costs as close as nothing to run as makes no difference. Between those two the family has all it needs for motoring, and then the Z4 adds the sparkle.

I'm actually a pretty big Toyota fan. Their range now is a bit sad but I've owned an MR2 and a Corolla Gti, both of which were amongst the best cars I've ever owned.

I love jap stuff usually and my old Nissan 200sx is still the most favourite car I have owned so for me you really cant go wrong if you want dependable motoring with jap cars, just not much in the current Toyota range that raises my heartbeat.

Nearly all the reviews for Skoda`s are awesome I will admit and like you there are many very happy owners I just personally struggle with their looks but if I am honest they are a very savvy purchase because in reality they are not any different to an Audi but you pay nowhere near the price so in many ways it is a no brainer.

Same here Lee. Love Japanese cars and used to own a weird little black Nissan 100NX Pacific. Would sell organs to own a Mk1 Supra. Also on the hitless is a minter, stock 200SX with pop ups :D

I loved the quirkiness of the 100NX :thumbsup: always wanted a 300ZX a friend of mine took me out in his and at the time I thought it was like an amazing supercar or something! :driving:

I really enjoyed the Jap scene at the time I had my 200 plenty of shows to go to and because most stuff had a Turbo there was plenty of quick stuff about. :D
