Gonna put in a defence for the Allegro. It wasn't a bad car, it was just built badly. And admittedly BL ruined the styling, Harris Manns original design looked amazing.
Having driven one I was actually really impressed with the ride quality. The A-Series means even if the rest of the car fell apart it would still run (much like a Mercedes built in the early 2000s) and they had decent rust proofing for the time. Not a great car but far from a bad one.

Finally someone who doesn't hate the allegro!
And I see a fan of old Citroens! Good times all round.
AMC pacer is one of the most iconic American cars because of how much of a lemon it was! 🍋
Renault 14 was pretty good
I like Pacer and Lexus
