Pinto Tops Our 10 Worst Cars List  — Every automobile website or blog has a ten worst car's list, and we decided that it was our turn. We tried to limit our picks to relatively recent models — just as it’s easy to deride melodramatic overacting in a silent movie, it’s easy to pick out the flaws in the antique car from the days when the automobile was a new invention. So, without further ado, here are our ten worst cars of all time. More information on all types of cars is available at Ford St Cloud. 10.

There are so many different types of minor car damage that will require us to go to a body repair garage, including the four discussed below. Wing mirrors Sticking out of the car and often very flimsy; wing mirrors suffer the brunt of minor accidents more than anything else. Whether you have got too close to another car or an object in a car park, or the damage was caused by someone else, broken wing mirrors make the car look cheap and nasty. Not to mention the fact that these are highly important tools for being able to see all around the car – especially when using multiple lanes on the motorway – it’s important that you do no...
