Going on from another thread what's your bad car history any thing your ashamed of now.

Ill start

Fiat Uno x4 don't know why I didn't learn after the first one

And recently a very nasty Saab 93 diesel with starship miles and most panels dented and scuffed not so much a bad car choice as just a bad car.

That's why I'm shocked by 170. Usually a remap on a normally aspirated car gives about 5bhp!
