I had a Skoda Estelle with no clutch.. The only car I've had stolen from me.

Not as bad as the Renault Clio which lasted 4 hours. The brakes completely failed at a very inopportune moment. Hedges are hard in Cornwall! Pushed one of the A pillars vertical and broke the bell-housing! I got several broken ribs and a fractured skull out of it though.

It has to be the one I am driving (well attempting to) at the moment. It's just going to be my between 740's car I am relieved to say, but after 8 years with a Volvo, I can tell you this one came as a shock! Now I drive like a little old lady ('cos after all, that's how they got to be OLD lol) but it has the road holding skills of a shopping trolley! Appears to be made of plastic (if you lean on it you get a person shape left behind..................and, p'raps because I can't alter the seats, but why on earth do all cars get designed for 6 foot tall blokes to drive - some of us are vertically challenged and finish up with very strange driving positions as a result!

Thinking of putting a long pole on it and selling it as a dodgem car - grrrr!

(It's a Renault Scenic).
