Worst car you ever owned...

[Jon Tilson]

Just to keep this near the top I'm going to bore you all with my 2nd worst ever car...<br>
<br>
1966 Riley Kestrel (ADO16 1100 with leather seats and wooden dash and rev counter)<br>
<br>
R is for Riley and R is for Rust. But this was a whole new experience...the old 4/68 (Farina riley) had so much redundancy in the structure it would still pass the MoT with huge bits missing. I remember the tester moaning he couldnt fail it cos it wasnt load bearing...Hah! But the ADO 16 was dire....the trumpets (inner wings) and rear sub frame and mounts and cills were diabolical.<br>
Rear radius arm beaerings were the clincher...fixed and flogged...<br>
Blew 2 head gaskets and was a nightmare the whole time I owned it. It did steer and handle well though.<br>
