Say what you like ... I'd own one today. If only for the shock value.

 a Yugo?

[Professur]

A Yugo, an Innocenti, and a Reliant Robin. And all three together fit in the space it takes to park the Oldsmobile. It would take major surgery to get the smile off my face.

[Ringo64]

A Robin would certainly be interesting to drive.

I think I need to get a custom made bumper sticker made up for Pro, it should read something like:

 

_{MY OTHER CAR IS A P.O.S. TOO!}

_{TETANUS SHOTS ARE FOR SISSIES!}

_{HI! I AM FROM MONTREAL. DRIVING A P.O.S. IS A RIGHT FROM DIEU!}

[Professur]

Hell yeah.

Start at 2:45

 

It was a most satisfying show to be sure.

You are right Pro, all three would look good thoroughly crushed or obliterated. It would be hard to get the smile off my face after that too !!!!

That's big talk from a guy driving the vehicle that Top Gear voted ugliest car of the last 20 years., the Pontiac Assteck. Even Clarkson agreed.

You are a little bit behind the times Pro. The wife traded in the angry dumpster on wheels in 2012 for a Chevy Traverse. Still nice try.

See, this is the problem. We never talk anymore.

Really Clarkston complaining about looks?  Clarkston is the Pontiac Aztec of television hosts.
