  • Car's I've owned:

    Good: Audi A4 1.8T Sport (180bhp) ran it for 18 months and got my money back.

    Bad: Laguna RXE when the water pump failed doing 90 on the M6...

    Ugly: Citroen ZX diesel estate - bought just to park up and use as a workhorse as and when. The OH hated it...

    Car's I've driven:

    Good: Audi A6 4.2

    Bad: Lada Riva, sideways...

    Ugly: Any Koren crap...
  • Cars I've owned:

    Good - 2001 Seat Ibiza 1.8T Cupra (pocket rocket, lots of fun but got written off by a 70mph Land Rover whilst stationary - with me inside, doh!)
    Bad - 1993 VW Golf 1.8GL - did about 2 to the gallon
    Ugly - Volvo 340 1.4 basic - as ugly as it gets!!!

    Cars I've driven:

    Good: Audi A5 3.0TDI - fantastic!
    Bad: Hyundai accent about 2 mililitres - lets you lock the car from the outside with the keys in the ignition and the engine running. Helpful!!
    Ugly: Rover (any of them come to think of it!)
  • cars ive owned.

    good- current focus and last car my capri.
    bad- vauxhall nova.
    ugly- the underside of my nova and a fiat tipo.

    cars ive driven.

    good- new mondeo 2.0 tdci
    bad- citroen c5 saloon and estate.
    ugly- again the c5 wins this award.
    ...work permit granted!
  • Good Rangerover, rover SD1 and current Mondeo TDCI
    Bad Vauxhall Chevette, purely because the indicator stalk used to fall on the floor whenever you touched it (which invariably was when it rained) so you'd be scrambling about the floor to put the wipers on.
    Ugly was a MK3 powder blue escort (b reg) bought for £50 as it had a fall out with a tractor.

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Good: All Hire cars.

    bad: Apart from this one.... VW polo 1.4. Plasticky, awful gear change and gutless engine. 5th gear is useless on the motorway.

    Ugly: The new mini. Jeeeez.
