Ceptik Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 1.0 Nissan Micra in place of my old MK3 fiesta. Like driving a go-kart without and accelerator pedal. 106 in place of my 307. The car was so small that all 3 pedals could be operated with the same foot all at the same time. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how_supra Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 a Kia Picanto...........WTF is that about!!!! It was just like a small box with wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heyrick Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Hi, I reckon this counts as it's the 'only' loan car I've ever had so it could count as the worst couldn't it? A Toyota Yaris. Really nice. I was really impressed with it. Never liked small cars much but this one felt big and roomy. Snappy acceleration and a lovely colour blue! Holographic mph guage (almost a heads up display) was good too. Thanks Mr T. Sorry if this detracts from the thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerotop Dave Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 My garage loans out old bangers as loan cars, so last year I drove a Vauxhall Astra 1.1L... with a manual choke (how do you use them again?!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 A Fiat Seicento was my worst, could only just about get in it, and I had to wear thin shoes as you could accidentally touch the clutch when going for the accelerator, not that it actually accelerated.....

cashpoint Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Had a lada some 4 years ago when my car was in for a clutch change. Got on the bypass to go to work, turn the heater on the engine died . Turned the ignition off then back on (I was still moving) let the cluct up in 1st and it started again. Needless to say i didn't turn the heater on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
