When Citroën was developing first prototypes of the 2CV they considering making owners catch fireflies to power its “headlight”.

The only answer is the Hyundai Casper

Battlecars. When you take a normal car, lift its suspension a bit, put muddy tires and the whole shebang. The subreddit r/battlecars is one of my absolute favorites.

A black Volvo 850 T5-R wagon. I was a broke student with less than 15k BRL to spend on a car, and wanted a cool wagon. I was ready to blind-buy the car that was 300 km away from where I lived, when my then girlfriend (now wife) convinced me that if anything broke down in the Volvo we wouldn’t have money to fix it.…

The Fiat Marea Weekend with the fivetech 5-cylinder engine. This car is famous in Brazil for spontaneously breaking down, catching fire (often both) and being unlucky cars to be nearby.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the V8 Cygnet, a car that made little sense as it was, and even less sense with a V8 (although it’s cool as heck)

May sound counterintuitive, but low mileage in old cars. It can mean the previous owner either only drove in traffic jams (hence the low mileage for old age), in short spurts (and hence the engine never quite operated under its optimal temperature range) or the odometer was tampered with.

With BMW showing a prototype with color e-ink panels, I’m betting my chips on true color-changing paintjobs

And do you know whats worse about it?

People who leave their carts behind my car or, worse, behind and in contact with my car. I seen to be a magnet to such jerks

Since Chevrolet has a new partnership with Wuling, they could rebadge the Wuling EV as the Chevette and sell it for $15k or $20k

There’s only one acceptable answer: The sensible Fiat Panda 4x4
