Haha, I knew that would be controversial, I liked them from the start, and they've really grown on me even more. I think they're genuinely cool cars for being so different!

There's a fairly long list of cars I like that nobody else seems to though Tongue

Am I the only one who prefers the Mk2 MX-5 to the Mk1 or Mk2.5?

Thats the whole point of this thread Tongue

Everyone has them cars they really like but are embarrassed to admit. Just like everyone listens to that song that they know their friends will take the piss out of if you put it on on a road trip lol

Another vote for the nissan Juke here...

I shouldnt but I do!

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Jonny81191 - 22-10-2015

Vauxhall Nova SRi. I'd absolutely love to have one. Or a mk3 Cavalier SRi.

I definitely grew up in the North..

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - bashbarnard - 22-10-2015

God i hate the nissan juke piggy! Drove enough of them. Lol. To be honest i sort of have a thing for the Daihatsu curoe. I bought one as an in between car once had it for 6 months and wish id never got rid. Was such a laugh to drive!

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - THE_Liam - 22-10-2015

Drove a Nissan GTR tonight. Didn't want to like it because it's butt ugly, and the most complex car ever, which is my pet hate with modern cars, but... fast. Very, very, very fast. And I can't not like that.

Hell yeah! Possibly the most 'fun' car i've ever driven from point A to B on public roads. Was by no means fast but the body roll, the screaming little engine, long sloppy gear stick all just made it hilarious

So sad ours got head gasket failure and died even still was balls to the walls fun trying to drive a fked 3 cylinder engine (which was sounding mroe like a 2 cylinder) on the motorway to get to a garage. 50mph was it's max(on flat ground) and had to hold the throttle to stop it cutting out at the lights

Will definitely be getting one as a daily some day

The GTR is a guilty pleasure for me because I usually hate modern cars...

And just for the record, my guilty pleasure song is Owner of a Lonely Heart by Yes Sleepy

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Lwilliams - 23-10-2015

I feel the same I really liked it when it came out.... then it became so popular and I started not to like it, then it's just trying to over come the size of it!!!! it's huge Puke

But I do think I'll buy one at some point, if I can afford it that is.... It's between that or c63 coupe I think

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - r3k1355 - 23-10-2015

Yea you can't just restrict the thread to shitty old heaps, if there's a genuine reason not to like a car then that counts.

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Seb_Ryan - 23-10-2015

Fiat coupe turbo aswell..

I'd also love a nova and I'm a southerner. I live just south of Birmingham and consider myself to be quite far north. lmao

Did a summer for a race team that built them into GT3 cars. I've always had a soft spot for them since then.

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Piggy - 24-10-2015

Fiat uno turbo. What a car

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Uberderv - 24-10-2015

Mercedes G Wagon. Everything I hate about a car all rolled into one but I still like them Smile

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Piggy - 24-10-2015

G Wagons are epic!!

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - JTaylor2005 - 24-10-2015

Will urmmm just place this photo here :/ haha. Why do I like this sort of car haha.

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Kezzieboy - 24-10-2015

Friend of mine just bought a Fiat 126, pretty win little banger. Also love Ladas and Fiat 124s!

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Matt - 26-10-2015

Galanzas, they look like shit, but feel nippy even when they aren't. Strangely like them
Mk4 golfs. I bloody hate them, always have done and now I find myself looking at them
Prelude/civic/integras anything like this I've always hated, hate the scene, can't stand the noise they make, vtec sound gay. Yet I find myself looking on eBay for one :/

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Lwilliams - 26-10-2015

Always liked an accord Tongue

hold their money well though Sad

especially the newer style

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - Nathan1305 - 26-10-2015

Mk2 MG ZR... Just drove my mates 120. I couldn't help but smile. I don't know what's wrong with me

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - THE_Liam - 26-10-2015

I'd rather empty them all for for ownership preferrably all over it lol

You want to empty your kidneys all over a car? Whatever turns you on.. lmao

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - 1616six - 27-10-2015

Mx5
Montego
Maestro
500 Abarth
Punto Evo Abarth thing

Astra J.. Got rid of an e90 for it, no idea why but it's just perfect for our needs. Cheap tax, decent boot, power is acceptable, comfy, loads of gadgets to make life easier, decent built in sat nav, Bluetooth, voice control, 50+ mpg.

It's one of those cars I hated the look of when they first came out but it's the first car I've had no thoughts about changing and I've had it 9 months. It's just functional and a nice place to be. Thumbs up from me.

Ford Fusion. It's a grandad mobile and you sit ridiculously high but I had my dad's for a while when my 206 first broke and it's epiccly practical. The seats go completely flat so it's basically a van. It has a flat low loading sill... a sunglasses holder... aux input... the passenger seats goes flat to create a table (great for tea or playing cards)... and because it rides so high u can mount any speed hump without slowing. It's awesome!!!

RE: Cars you really shouldn't like but do - THE_Liam - 27-10-2015

Golf VR6. Not much to look at, not actually that quick for a 2.8, terrible on fuel, not great in the bends, rust prone, not all that well put together for a German car, overpriced, and basically a half-arsed attempt by VW to compete with small 6-cylinder M-Bs and BMWs, but still every time I drive one I get out wanting one. A good example of the whole being better than the sum of it's parts.
