Roll back the driver rubber mats and see the road below ass under your feet. £200 for a disposable car and £1200 to insure it. That was my first Nova.
Never as bad as original post but I’d forgotten all about my ropey cars!
Dirt cheap to insure as well.

Wouldn't be my choice if I wanted to go from Windsor to Chequers without being stuck in traffic. Too much collateral damage I suppose they wanted to show the Donald the delights of the Britwell and Polski Sklep drive. That should reassure him we are integrating well.

I've heard of molegrips being used on a broken gear stick in an emergency, but for steering, on the road?
I wonder if it had space-saver tyres fitted all round? I guess it made it easier (lighter) to steer!

A motorist was stopped by police for driving while sitting on a bucket and steering with pliers.
The battered car, which also had no front wing, bumper, headlights and a flat tyre was pulled over in King's Lynn in Norfolk.
