That's not fair, my Allegro Sport ran pretty well. Obviously, getting it into 1st gear was always a struggle and you could unlock the doors with a screwdriver instead of a key, but these were just typical character. But it was quick. I mean, not fast like an Impreza Evo 9 GoFQ-self TURBO, but it would hit a ton pretty readily and was quite smart off-the-line back in the day.

When I px'd it for the Magnum it felt like a downgrade in some ways - no headrests or fifth gear :lol: But on the other hand, the Magnum was just a delight to throw around.

Thinking about it now, my car history is pretty shocking in places, although most were quite fun:
Datsun 1100
Allegro Sport
VX Magnum
TR7 (4 speed)
Chrysler Sunbeam GLS
Samba Cabrio
Cavalier Sportshatch
Astra SR
MG Montego EFi
Audi 80 Sport
309SRi
Cavalier mk2 GLSi
Rover 216 Twin Cam
Saab 9-3 inj & Manta GT/E
Saab 9-3 turbo
Grand Scenic 2.0T
CX-7 & Saab 9-3 Aero cabrio

Worst vehicles I worked on was a Reliant Regal mark 2, and a Reliant Scimitar GTE, Jaguar E type, got involved fixing them for friends who simply could not work in the limited space, I don't care what 4 wheels I own as it's just a tin box that carries my dogs around and has space to fit small bikes in. I've had my Berlingo for 15 years and still going strong, before that Montego, Escorts, Chevette, Victor, Anglia.
So 45 years and only about 7 motors, whereas I've had more than 40 motorcycles.

Wow! All you're missing is a Marina.

For over a year they were fitting porous pistons to the 1100 Agro, ask me how i know that one then, go on ask me....I used to get the job to fix the buggers cos i was qwiker :!: than the others at it.. ;) poxy things :lol: They fitted new engines to the first lot, about 4months worth, then said it was cheaper to replace the pistons.
