If I had the spare cash I’d buy it just to scrap it. They were ste in their day and they definitely won’t have improved with time.
What a stupid post!
Agreed, why even bother typing that. If you don't like it, go and read another article or thread.
Some folk on here, myself included, like to read about nostalgic cars from when they were young.
I’d also scrap Morris Minors. thumbup

I’m going to kick off with Volkswagen Vans used as family cars.
They take up huge amounts of room and around my way are always driven by utter throbbers.

I’d start with anything with a plastic flower garland on the rear view mirror and work down from there.

People, usually but not always women, who clear condensation from the windscreen by wiping it with the palm of their well moisturised hands…. furious

You've never owned one ? Driven one ?

The only car I gave up trying to change the spark plugs. Even a v6 omega was easier.

Preparing to be flamed here but I’m currently debating one of said vans. It’s only 60mm longer and 25mm wider than my current Volvo estate… and it’s not the biggest of Volvo estates either.

Every single Land Rover Defender ever. Unreliable, uncomfortable, noisy, crap to drive.

Fiat 500L.

Twice had one as a hire car abroad. I'm tempted to avoid going abroad in case I get another one.

I don’t really hate anything - I think I could get joy from basically any car.
