I bought a vw beetle at a auction when i arrived late and i never had a chance to look at it and i bid it and won on the first bid it was a rust bucket.

Not sure how many times i have been to auctions but i learned my biggest lesson that day...

Same here- only ever owned 2 cars- my IS200 and a 1985 Ford Escort. Based on my short car history, I'd say the Escort was the worst car I've owned.

The Escort wasn't reliable in the winter- wouldn't start on cold mornings.

Edit: I shouldn't really complain about the Escort as it was given to me as a freebie.

had loads of cars but the worst was a Nissan Bluebird Diesel, no turbo and cost me £30 bought unseen, it had 3 months mot and tax, I needed a car quick, kept it for 6 months before it died completely.

The worst car I ever owned was a Peugeot 206 1.9 diesel which I had as a driving school car. I really didn't know there was that much that could go wrong with a car. I always had the feeling that Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder were in charge of putting the electrics in this car. It had a lovely habbit of winding it's wondows down of it's own accord and even when offerd money and other favours, it refused to wind them back up again. It had two diesel injector pumps, three sets of glow plugs and I was quoted over £700 for a cambelt change. I've stuck with jap stuff ever since.

Imagine what my 206 was like. It didn't have a turbo. I suppose the silver lining was that there was one less thing to go wrong.
