Worst Cars Of All Time Rated
prostoalex writes "Forbes magazine complains that people nowadays do not have a real understanding of how awful a car can truly be. Hence they compiled a list of the worst cars available in the US, or 'lemons' created after World War 2. In the former Eastern Bloc, there are plenty of other choices, including this Ukrainian jewel, as well as many Soviet cars did not make it to the Forbes article."
Q: What's the difference between a sheep and a Holden?
A: You wouldn't want to be seen getting out of a Holden.
Pontiac Aztek!
That car is so bad, it must have been hit twice with the ugly stick.
another old anecdote:
A soviet drove his Lada(01) to Munich and it broke at some point there. Some Mercedes driver offered his help and used a rope to tie the cars together to pull Lada to the nearest mechanic. On the way a Volvo decided to race the Mercedes, and apparently the Merc. driver forgot about Lada at its back.
Later local newspaper had a headline: Lada participates in a race! A Mercedes and a Volvo were seen to race each other on the autoban, but apparently a Soviet made Lada was seen chasing them from behind and honking the horn, so that the two cars would move aside and let it through.
You can't handle the truth.
A man enters an auto parts store and addresses the mechanic:
"I'd like a pair of windshield wipers for my Yugo."
The mechanic looks at him thoughtfully, then says:
"Sure, sounds like a fair trade..."
If you open yourself to the foo, You and foo become one.
This was moderated "Insightful"?!?!?! WTF? Hasn't anyone ever seen this?
"Yeah, well, Dracula called and he's coming over tonight for you and I said okay."
The real question is: in which vehicle have more people died from embarrassment while driving? Whether you die in flames, or simply never get a second date because you pick women up in a Yugo, either way, you're pretty much taking your genes out of the gene pool, aren't you?
