Motors The Worst Car in The History of The World

Citroen BX - no redeeming features

 

What, not even the Ferrari F40 aping rear spoiler?

 

the spoiler makes the F40

 

It wouldn't be the F40 without that spoiler, neither would it look right.

 

Of course it does, I was referring to the comedy rear spoiler on the Citroen BX 16v!

 

All I'm seeing there is an F40.

Oh, wait...

 

You really have to study it to see the subtle differences, that's for sure.

 

oh crap

ROFL

 

Because being higher on the road makes driving easier, it increases your own safety (I admit not the safety of others), and a lot of people with money don't want to drive a sports car? It's not all about performance you know.

I really don't understand what the rage is about - the owners have used their own money to buy it, not yours, so it's their decision surely? If they prefer to drive it than a lower luxobarge saloon or alike then why is that wrong?

Plenty of 4x4s are not actually really destined for offroad - the X5 and Cayenne are prime examples, they'll take you through a bumpy field without damaging the car or yourself but I don't think many people really expect anything more of them...!

 

Where is the radiator intake on that thing?

 

?

Does it need one? ( look at a VW beetle: Does it have a radiator intake? )

Or any Porsche 911... (with a 6 cilinder boxer engine in the back)

 

The superb Chrysler LeBaron 1985....the 80s were a big joke.

 

1980s Mustangs...

 

In what way are they easier to drive may I ask? You can see over other cars or hedges is their only benefit. Otherwise they are harder to drive, understeer is a big problem for many, the fact that they are both wide and long makes them more difficult in the city etc. I've driven a few and am still insured on my Dad's Ford Maverick long wheel base (not a good example, as that thing sucks). I may not have driven the top of the range Range Rovers or BMW X5's etc, and I know they are meant to be much nicer to drive, but still not as nice as a luxury saloon which would be in the same or lower price brackets.

I think it's wrong for the reasons in the other post I made. Expensive to purchase and run, more dangerous than a car for others on the road and especially for pedestrians, worse for the environment (if performance isn't important why not get something more economical?), poorish on-road and off-road (not always mind).

I just see them as pointless, and tbh rather selfish choices. Does there need to be more reasons? That is quite a lot already.

I know not everyone is going to agree, and I don't expect them to. I would like to see less urban 4x4's on the road though, but that's a personal preference. I would also like to see less chaved up Saxo's , not everyone is going to agree there either.

 

Only one possible answer to this question

A square box with bicycle wheels and an engine that would have struggled to power a small lawnmower. Made out of what appeared to be that foil you used to find on milk bottles with a beautiful plastic interior. 0-60 in.... well I got overtaken by a overladen milk float at traffic lights once. The ride was terrible, it was noisy, leaked and most importantly made by Fiat.

 

It's at the back. The Corvair was (poorly) air-cooled, like the Beetle.
It was also the star of Ralph Nader's "Unsafe at Any Speed" - the report that almost killed the muscle car market.

 

Mustangs from the 80s are magnificent...compared to the King Cobra 1978 !

 

GORGEOUS

 

1980 Plymouth Horizon.

Car was so small and underpowered, I could put my feet out the passenger window and my head out the drivers. My knees were placed at the 9 and 3 position on the steering wheel, while I still had to operate the clutch when shifting. I needed a block when parking on a hill because the engine compression was worthless in keeping it in place.
