"Avoid it like the plague"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Breaks down every morning.

Brakes failed.

Battery replaced.

Door does not close properly.

Body trim came off in the rain.

Interior light dropped off and hit me on the head whilst I was driving.

Fog lights shorted.

General comments?

Handling is scary.

Can occasionally go fast if you can get it started.

It should be renamed the Peugeot Dog.

You can see the headlights through the wings.

I keep having annoying teenagers wearing baseball caps coming up to admire it. They think I'm joking when I ask them to steal it.

It really does not like going up hills and makes a most strange noise, reminiscent of a 2CV.

The leather chairs are really nasty, they look and feel like bin bags and kill your back over long distances.

I am going to sell it to see whether I can salvage anything financially, Anyone want it?
