For embarrassing cars I've never had anything too bad apart from the fact they were sheds. My parents were a bit all over the place with cars going from a Lada Niva to a Landrover, Lada Riva to a Sierra xr4x4 to a 1.6 Astra.

See below guess I have been fortunate:-) missed off a couple of Ford Escorts that I ran at the end of the nineties one was a 1.6 boggo standard the second was a 1.8 si or something cannot remember in metallic pepper red quite shifty for the time. All we're ran from new for varying lenghts of time. My favourite is all the VRS's mega cars mind the R32 was'nt too bad:-).

What odd you think of the c5? I loved mine, kept her for two years. Real comfy punchy cruiser but just no fun to drive

The C5 was lovely, had it mapped to 300bhp and 430flbt so it really flew, had it just under 2 years until some idiot drove into me at speed and wrote it off. Give it credit though as it protected me well enough to walk away.

Mk 1 Golf 1.1L Great car but old when bought and I had to put a new engine in it.

Montego 1.6L bloody awful (company car)

Montego 2.0L MG extremely fast, shame about the brakes and steering. (Company car)

Renault 9 great until the gear box went at 70k (Company car)

 2 x Vauxhall Cavaliers 2.0L  good reliable cars. (company cars)

Vauxhall Astra MK 2 ok but dull (Company car)

3 x Mondeos 2.0L TDI's Good cars never any issues (Company cars)

Saab 1.9 TDI bloody awful and never out of the garage, pleasure to hand it back (Company Car)

Golf 1.6tdi Slowmotion - Nice car. (Company car)

SKODA Octavia 1.6MPI SE - excellent car for the price no issues in 3 years but gas guzzler.

SKODA Octavia 1.6TDI Elegance - great car so far and I must say the nicest car I have owned.

 

I also driven hundreds of hire cars and pool cars from Mercedes, BMW's to Chevrolets and Citroens.

The Beetles have generally been my wife's car, but they have been in my name, I have insured them, and paid all the bloody bills on them, so technically, mine?

 

Anyway, quite a varied list, but the last 7 or eight years have settled on VAG vehicles, which I have been overall very happy with.
