1: Whats the worst car you have owned?
Nissan Juke 1.6 DIG-T

2: How much did you pay for it?
£16k

3: What was wrong with it?
Poor fuel economy combined with not so hot performance. Very poor space in back, boot size nothing to write home about.

4: How long did you have it/or how long have you had it?
14 months.

5: What did you replace it with?.
E46 330i

Having said that, I really enjoyed the car in many ways. I loved the styling, and the performance was the fastest motor I'd owned at that point. It was comfortable and has the one of my personal favorite interiors. Great value for money as far as spec goes. It's only because I've enjoyed my other cars more that it falls down to the "worst car", which isn't a fair description. "Least favorite" would be a better description.

1: Whats the worst car you have owned? - F Reg BMW 316
2: How much did you pay for it? About £1500
3: What was wrong with it? Engine cooked itself within a few days, needed a whole engine replacement which cost about £1000, then when it came round to its MOT it had a list of faults like a fat persons shopping list and needed around £1000 spending on it just to get it through the MOT. Sold it for about £300. Bad purchase!

nothing it did not run
Most things mainly rust you had to clean the carbs out as the idle jets blocked up ( it had two huge side draught webbers on it ) and it was yellow.

Haha, this is going to be tough...

2: How much did you pay for it? £250 I think
3: What was wrong with it? Nothing mechanical, it was incredibly reliable, just very rusty
4: How long did you have it/or how long have you had it? 12 months
5: What did you replace it with? Rover 420 GSi Turbo
 
1: Renault Clio 1.9D (non turbo)
2: £400
3: Horrible to drive, noisy, smelly, uncomfortable, Had no confidence in it as it left the road at its own will, span it about 3 times and put it into a couple of hedges. Had a horrible blow out on the motorway whilst in it.
4: I had it for about a year simply because I was a poor student and my insurance let me drive any vehicle so I frequently used my mums car if I needed to go anywhere without dying.
5: Replaced it with a Gen 6 Toyota Celica – Cracking car and a world apart from that crappy little hatch.
 
Lot of Metro's on here, glad I wasn't the only person who made that mistake. When my MG Metro Turbo came to the end of it's serviceable life which wasn't long, I butchered it for the engine and new gearbox and stuck it into a Mini project I was working in. So even though it was the worst car ever, it became the doner for one very interesting small car.
 
I'm the same as Fox, I've never had a "bad car".

The least good one, probably the R reg 1.4 fiesta I bought in 2009 to to go to work in.

Paid £750 for it with 6 months t&t, ran it for 18 months, got a company car, gave the fiesta away to a couple who were struggling for money and their car had suffered major engine problems.
It ran for another 6 months before failing its MOT on the sills and brake lines after which it was scrapped.
