          2nd car I bought was ford popular, this car was very basic.

          It had a single vacuum powered wiper and if you were to drive on motorway when raining your wipers will pause on full throttle, no heater, you could not travel over 30 miles without getting frozen.

          Worse car I ever owned.

              Was that the one that the back window dropped out as you jacked it up?

              No sorry, that was the Austin Aggro. - More areodynamic going backwards than forwards.

              Did see a Austin 1100 the other month - same car Basil Fawtly likes to thrash.

                  one of my favourite cars . The epitome of Brtishness. A two-tone P5 coupe, with Rover's (Buick designed) magnificent 3.5 V8. Not just a great looking car, but sounds fantastic too.

                    Of the cars in the video my favorite has to be the Triumph Herald...fantastic turning circle, engine and gearbox easily accessible for maintenance and the least favorite...the Mini.
                    I used to hate that by-pass water hose between the block and the head...put many a screwdriver through my fingers with them.

                    I had the Hillman Hunter which drank petrol and had massive under steering ...a Fiat 127 van several Lambrettas and a Honda 90.
