Want to buy the worlds worst car?

The insurance company Warranty Direct thought it through and chose the parts for the car. For many of you the donor parts may come as a surprise.

    The engine comes from a MG TF, which according to Welt is especially error prone.
    Transmission tecnique from Land Rover Freelander.
    Brakes from Audi A8
    The over-stressed wheel suspensions from BMW M3,
    Ignition system from Mercedes V-klassen.
    Steering mechanism from Volvo V70.
    Ignition system fra Renault Mègane.
    Air condition from Seat Alhambra.
    - and finally, radiator from Seat Toledo.

If this insurance company nightmare car went into production, it would cost the owners €2665 per month in repair bills. That is if repaired in Germany.

Any takers? :o
