What is the worst courtesy car you’ve had?
My auto Skoda Superb Estate is in the garage for a service. They’ve given me an 8 year old, 5-speed manual, Citroen C1 as a courtesy. I don’t think the cars could be anymore different, in every single way.
After keeping my head down, on an embarrassing drive home I can say the car is the worst piece of shit I’ve ever driven. Wheels feel like they’ll come off once you’re eventually over 60.
Edit: Seems a lot of people disagree and the C1 is a good car, in its own right? I’ve gone from driving a quiet, smooth barge to a tiny, noisy tin can so felt a bit silly. I’ll try and embrace it on the journey back and throw it around some b-roads.
Edit 2: Right, took it on the back roads on the way to the school run. Yes, I’m embarrassed to drive it, yes it sounds like a washing machine and yes, it feels very unsafe. BUT, I was audibly laughing blasting it round the corners in 2nd. Still can’t wait to give it back.
