Wasn't bad at all considering, especially as I didn't have to pay to run it, and was pretty quick too.

Definitely NOT the worst car I've ever had, by a long way. Had a MkIV Cortina briefly (company car again) and that really was bad.

I just remembered I once drove a Toyota Prius. What a truely soulless car they are. I know there are plenty of bad motors out there which have their own individual issues, but the Prius is a true white good. I hated everything about it.

Changing the subject a bit but my sister husband had a 14reg 2ltr diesel mondeo has a loan car when he was on a course a few weeks back. He said there was something wrong with tje engine,the sat nav was shit and the seats were horrid lol. He just doesn't like fords cause i do ha ha.

A MK3 Golf L 5 door sunroof model. I still have it as a spare as it seems to pass MOTs but isnt worth scrap, after I made the biggest mistake of buying a Citroen C2 Vtr with the tard-o-tronic gearbox that lasted a month I bought this red whopper to get to work and back. ive never driven anything that felt like it would actually roll over in a soft corner. All the pedals were completly solid, and with all that for a 1.4 it wasnt quick, but too fucking quick for the car, many times ive come to junctions with that 'oh shit shit shit shit' going round in my head by doing a simple task as stopping.

Was shit hot for doing handbrake turns though.
