Worst car ever made

Ferrari F40.
Not as nice as the 288 GTO nor as special.
Apparently not as good to drive as the 288 GTO.
Not as well built or well engineered as the Enzo or F-50.
Over 1,300 built when it was supposed to be limited production.
Not a successful racer.
Proper Ferraris shouldnt have turbos (which is what everyone on here cries about when Ferrari talk about going turbo to cut emissions)
No creature comforts (it is a road car not a race car after all)
Has less power than a modern BMW 4x4
And it is the most overhyped car in the whole wide world because it is trendy to like them.
Ferrari F-40 =/= BMW 335d mapped but at least the BMW335d mapped can take you to do your shopping.
Really though, the old Kia Rio was dire.
You ever actually been in one at full chat?Not as nice as the 288 GTO nor as special.

That is one of the funniest posts I've read all day. Thanks for cheering me up.Not as nice as the 288 GTO nor as special.

The Kia RIO was dire... that's all I'm going to agree with!

Anyone who thinks the mk5 Golf is the worst car ever made, clearly hasn't driven a mk4. My vote goes to the 1.7 Ital Estate.
And on that point - my submission for the worst car ever built must be the original Beetle. Slow, noisy, uncomfortable, unreliable (but easily fixable) and not particularly practical. It was out of date when it was first built - let alone thirty years later. And like, to be fair, most cars of its generation, a complete and utter RUST trap.

I always thought popular opinion was that the F50 was not as good as it's older conterpart?Not as nice as the 288 GTO nor as special.

In comparison reviews now they always call the F-50 overlooked and seem impressed with it. I think its looks and peer pressure influenced the journalists more than actually driving the car.
Anyway, it's all a bit OT as clearly both the F40 and F50 are at wrong end of the spectrum for this thread.
Of all the cars I have driven, I'm going to vote for the mk1 vectra. Awful thing.

I had a quick wiki to check the difference between an Ital and a Marina... and then I read this:"Portuguese assembly
Although most Itals were manufactured in the UK, there were also Portuguese-assembled Itals (badged as Marina 1.5 D) which were all equipped with the ancient 1.5-litre B-Series diesel engine, producing 37 hp.[2] The British Leyland factory in Setúbal (IMA) then switched to producing the Mini Moke."
If that is correct I can only imagine a 37hp diesel must have been an absolute dream to drive!!
