Reatta_Cruzin Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 If that's classified as the best car, give me a good pair of Nike's! I'd walk before I set foot in one of those ugly vehicles.(tryin' to keep from using profanity!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 To Ronvb: Bad pun. How about Chryler's "S car" which replaced the "K car." When one passed by, people would say, "Look at that <BR>S car go!" (Even if it were going at a snail's pace..."<P>Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Hi everyone,<BR> Those Lada's sound about as much fun to drive as a Yugo, if you know what I mean. <BR> No offense to all you Yugo owners out there, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EDBS0 Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Chuck da Machinist; are you referring to the two wheel scooter Innocenti or the 4 wheel car??? Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idle Swede Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 J.M.Hellman, not at all. The 59 Dauphine looked more like a soapcup-holder but in all fairness a very fun car to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronvb Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Idle Swede,<P>When I was a younger man my neighbor had two early Renault Dauphines, one with a giant rubber wind-up key on the trunk.The car looked more natural that way.<BR>ronvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 The four wheeled variety EDSO, a local used car dealer in my city imported a car lot full in the mid eighty's, I guess he thought he could cash in on the small car craze happening around that time.<P>My favorite was the Innocenti Turbo, about the size of a mini and about as ugly (not bad). These cars were cheap, in every sense of the word. Turns out every single one had terminal ignition key failure that usually resulted in the car catching fire. He almost went broke because every car in the lot was eventually stripped for the steering column to replace the ones he had sold that were defective.<P>He still has a bunch that never sold sitting in the back lot, minus steering column of course. I wonder what will happen to them, maybe I should just offer him scrap price for the lot and form a sidewalk racing league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EDBS0 Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Chuck given that BMW is reintroducing the Mini you just might have something there?<P>Go for 1 and try it on e-bay, Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
