VE SSV
I just got given one as a work car! Heavy hard to see out of, overstyled. Red gauges, no brakes, auto not as smooth as the C4 in my 34 year old ZF, stil cant find how to work the switches, owners manual cant tell you, drone like a cheap exhaust sysytem, you have to be 6' to see out of the back, blue tooth function is useless, audio/HVAC is bizarre. And it's orange. On the plus side it has some go. But the very worst bit is people think I chose the POS. Makes me feel like a wannabe. Lucky the windows a tinted.

All Hyundai's are a bunch of shittboxes. panels are like cardboard, their plastic cheap interiors, seats are hard like anything and the car makes you feel claustophobic. mechanicals & engine are always problematic. after owning one before and driven many others. never again....

With all these people saying they don't like a car, because of a particular person/group driving them, do you actually dislike the cars, or the people? maybe both?
Though as someone said, the question was asking what your most disliked car was. Not because they're driven a certain way, by certain people. gngtho; I think what he meant was the owners of Commodores, that are modfied "Wog-ish". Presuming that's what he meant anyway. |

EAs while might not be the highest quality car ever made, are still pretty good cars. There were a big change over from the X-Series platform, and had their fair share of problems, but overall they weren't too bad. |

Mazda 121 (bubble POS), Daewoo's (more like daewon'ts), Kiaarap, Hyundoh's and generally every other car that looks like an abortion that lived.
Also cars with Stupid names too. A nissan Tiida (did we really need the extra " i " ?), A bloody Sante Fe, Tacuma, etc, etc And Geminis. The car aint too bad but the drivers are a breed of their own.

In the early 80's Nisson inflicted the 'Bluebird' upon the Aussie motoring public.
It was marketed as "Australia's First Four Cylinder Limousine" They were as close as you could get to the original Box. The introduction of this long standing joke just about destroyed Nisson in Aussie, the best thing to come out of the introduction of this Galvanized Garbage Bin on wheels.

We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about. “Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”. |

While not in any way wanting to go in to the "wogadore" debate that I fear is about to swing wide open, I did want to add this nice quote from Wheels in this thread (but please, this has nothing to do with the "wogadore" thing ok... This is not a racial or personal comment )

My worst hated car is none other than the VL Commodore. The interior is so ugly and it's interior design looked from a car manufactured in the 70's! YUK!

That's easy. Alfa Romeo. Any and all of them.
I owned one once bought new, and the pile of festering donkey crap spent more time in the garage getting fixed than on the road. After only 2 years it had rust holes literally in the hatch. Should have realized what a heap it was when a *new* car came with only 3 months factory warranty. |
