With my dad being a sales rep he used to get a brand new company car every 8-12 months so we had some corkers over the years.

All brand new witth <100 miles on the clock

Various Sierras, they were the main car of my childhood! Mum had a Mk1 Sierra ghia with the flat rectangle headlights in pale blue with the pepperpot alloys.. B2**XAV.. can't remember the whole reg. Loved that car! It sat on the drive for 3+yrs with a siezed gearbox.
Rover 216.. my grandad was a director at Rover, he had the last ever produced rover 216 SE on G214 FPW, and because he had his position and the last one made, he said he wanted it to be unique and have an X on the model, so until ~2002 when he died, he drove a Rover 216 SEX around.. in bright blue, that would have been an awesome boxy retro saloon to have today. Dad used it for a year or so then it started playing up, so he purchased an £800 L reg mondeo & sold the rover for £10, yes £10, to a local chav, it had 26k on the clock! Police came round the next day saying this lad had driven it round for 20 miles or so then dumped it in a field when it ran out of fuel, pikeys had been & crow barred the boot open and it was then crushed. such a shame!
