What is the most unreliable, hard to work on, pain in the ass car?
I want a difficult project that is absolute hell to work on and repair, something that breaks down all the time, and is just as unreliable as possible.
My budget is 80k USD.
Bring it on.
Noah Foster
Mitsubishi GTO (3000GT) VR4 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo MG MGA
Carson Thompson
Any ford
Nathan Jackson
Anything Italian.
Wyatt Rodriguez
BMW E32 750 BMW E31 850
Grayson Ross
1972 Opel GT.
Not really unreliable, but parts are an absolute bitch
Caleb Clark
Old Italian supercars are one of the best ways to make your life utterly miserable.
Ian Long
Poorly maintained FD?
Carter Fisher
Buy a Ford ranger, or a Dodge Durango, or any American car really.
Dylan Fisher
V12 jaguar xj
Gavin Roberts
Could always do an SVX?
Lincoln Harris
Just get a Maserati.
Nicholas Martin
any jaguar, or anything british for that matter
Brody Howard
>couple things need tending to on my ranger >no sweat, pull them out and swap them i love my ranger. terrible post, my friend
Isaac Rodriguez
the z32 not z31
Camden Martinez
89 Cutlass Supreme SL Or a Bronco 2
Nolan Brooks
Chrysler 300M Everything is placed in an inconvenient way throughout the engine bay
Blake Morgan
You're going to want something midengined, a Lotus Espirit will do it
Jose Perry
Or a rotten mr2 brought back to showroom condish.
Joseph Cruz
pic very much related, do it fagget! Quality was mediocre, parts are impossible to find and they got the typical 80s-90s Alfa reliability
Michael Myers
Range Rover
Juan Ramirez
civic/corolla
Michael Ross
>those >unreliable
Pay attention stupid
Gabriel Smith
God you're dumb American cars are easy as fuck to fix, like other user said parts just switch in and out without much effort unless they are rusted
Mason Gray
Audi S4. Pic very related.
Caleb Brown
OP pls
There's wrenching and then there's masochism, you're walking the razor's edge
Ian Rodriguez
Z31 never came with twin turbos
Angel Carter
does that whole chain controller run in oil?
Evan Perry
buy the most riced out pile of shit civic, and bring it back to stock
Anthony Howard
Testarossa, non T Mondial, Maserati BiTurbo
Austin Gutierrez
twin tarbo FD
Ryder Wilson
SL65 AMG. Poor reliability history, so it will break enough for you, but awesome car when it works. Or buy a new giulia, those sound like they'll be an electrical nightmare from the factory.
Luke Miller
It's not submerged in an oil bath, if that's what you're referring to.
There are more than a few failure points in the system. There are the nylon guides, which are noted failure points. There are also hydraulic tensioners, which are also noted failure points.
Also, all of these failure points are on the back of the motor, right up against the transmission. Most Audi techs would rather redo Allroad air suspension ten times over than deal with one S4 timing chain system.
William Watson
On that note, add the Audi Allroad to the list of hellish used cars.
Julian Richardson
No actual experience but would wager something like this, where they've pretty much balanced all the most unreliable parts on a stick and then built the whole car around them in the factory, once you've mastered something like that you'll probably speak fluent italian too.
Can understand they look like a nightmare at first sight but they're surprisingly nice to work on.
Eli Hall
So how about an Allroad with a V8 swap for the ultimate maintenance nightmare?
Luis Jenkins
He didnt say he wanted a shit car
Easton Cook
British Leyland anything maybe ? Esp. Jaguar.
Colton Brown
get a motherfucking yugo
Nicholas Peterson
Nah, commieblock cars are too dependable. Sure, they break all the time, but you can fix it in 5 minutes and if you can't, it'll get you home anyway.
Henry Walker
Only if it's S4 V8. The rest of their V8s just have mildly annoying timing belts.
Andrew Wood
>Mitsubishi GTO >Z32
You really swallow all the shit copy pasta from Veeky Forums spoons you. Fag.
Just because you are a poorfag and bought one for 1K, doesnt mean they are unreliable, it means you are a shit buyer and a poorfag.
>inb4 a fruund of mine had one durr
V8 audis, Most cheap Porsches and of course Ferraris.
Aiden Stewart
Anything with a transverse v6
>Oh you need access to anything on the far side of the engine? >Good luck with that
Aiden Torres
it's not that they're unreliable you dumb cunt, it's that they're a pain in the ass to work on.
i've seen people literally have to remove the engine on the Z32 to remove sparkplugs because it was easier.
James Sanchez
Mine is pretty fucking nightmare inducing. Getting to anything is damn near impossible.
Carson Anderson
Ah yes opposite of truth troll strikes again
Levi Scott
1993 Ford Taurus SHO. Be sure to buy the cheapest one possible.
Christian Jones
Lambretta, any year, any model
Jason Richardson
I know you're not talking about the engine
Jaxon Myers
I'm not. I'm talking about literally everything else about the car.
Tyler King
That's what I thought, cheers
Andrew Myers
Really? My dad is working on one right now, and he can find everything he needs online.
Jayden Powell
You could get a 3rd gen V8 SHO, now that I think about it. Then you have to worry about the engine failing too. When they typically fail, it fucks the pistons and the entire valvetrain.
Angel Reed
you're fucktarded because there's no more timing chains than in typical V-whatever
Joseph Bailey
And weren't the transmissions terrible as well?
Isaiah Green
It's not just the amount of chains, it's the way they run that's retarded.
Pic related, BMW managed to figure this shit out, why couldn't VW?
Ian Brown
>My budget is 80k USD
No it's not.
William Bell
Yep.
William Peterson
>responding to bait
Brayden Jones
Tesla
Oh wait you can't even work on the because >Closed source software
Landon Rivera
the "mechanical adjusters" are variable valve timing solenoids
Ryan Murphy
>replying to a 4 hour old post Wew
Christian Parker
>Lister Jaguar XJS 7.0 Le Mans Coupe
A normal jaguar V12 is already a giant fuck you to mechanics. I've owned one and one of my local jaguar garages rejected it because: FUCK DIFFICULT.
This beast has a drilled out 7.0 L V12 with TWIN superchargers.
The engine bay is pretty much just custom made pipes.
Andrew Bailey
Spoken like someone with zero wrenching experience. Aside from the pointlessly complicated routing, the entire drive system is on the back of the motor. Have fun pulling the whole front of the car.
Jason Cooper
Then again in return you get Grandfathers clock on Steroids MANY STEROIDS
Sebastian Hill

Connor Anderson
With your budget, probably a Ferrari 308 GTS
Tyler Brooks

If he's careful that might be just enough.
Hunter Lewis
Got passed by one of those in Austria once, they make a wicked sound.
Benjamin Rodriguez
What's that in the background, xxxxl-micrometer?
Eli Johnson
Mid 90s BMW 8 series with the V12 and all the options.
My friend had one, it was awesome when it worked but everything from the trim to the weird little primitive computers broke.
