    Top 10 Crappest Cars

    1 - Landrover - chance of fault in 12 months - 55%
    2 - Alfa Romeo - 46%
    3 - Renault - 45%
    4 - Saab - 43%
    5 - Jeep - 42%
    6 - Chrysler - 38%
    7 - MG - 37%
    8 - Mercedes - 34%
    9 - Vauxhall - 34%
    10 - Audi - 33%


    I am shocked at this as well, do you think its because these 10 sell more?

    I'm not surprised that no Japanese or Korean cars are on the list.
    The list does seem a little old though, MG ?

    We had a renault scenic in the UK fabulously roomy, ace family car but a money pit! Something went wrong every five minutes...also had a Vauxhall vectra, the less said the better..broke down many times... once on the way back from hospital with my newborn son. Have a Hyundia now, no probs so far touch wood!

    I wouldn't own a French car for free, once bitten twice shy.

    I have just been reading a reliability review and oddly enough given their perceived quality the worst European cars were BMW, Mercedes and Audi.

    We had a vectra as well and although it was only a few years old it was the worst car we had for breaking down.

    We have a Hyundai that we bought from a friend who returned home with cancer, it's a good car.
