A TOP ten of the worst value cars ever made includes luxury models from Porsche, Jaguar and Rolls Royce.
Troubled MG Rover has THREE entries in the list of over-priced, unreliable or poor resale motors.
Car giant Ford was top of the flops with its Racing Puma which failed to justify its £23,000 price.
Second worst is the limited edition Jaguar XJ220 at £400,000.
The much-criticised Porsche 914 is third.
Rover was fourth with the £17,000 416, sixth with the Indian-built City Rover and eighth with the £83,000 MG SV-R. The £36,000 Caterham R500 Evolution
is fifth and Isuzu Piazza seventh.
Rolls Royce’s 1975 Camargue is ninth and Vauxhall’s Tigra Diesel tenth in the list compiled by Test Drive magazine.
Editor James Mills warned: “Without sound advice, new and used car buyers could end up sinking their money into a genuine howler.”
What a load of Sun
Troubled MG Rover.
Think you're somewhat out of touch with reality matey.
They went bust in April cos people were under the misguided impression that they weren't very good, despite the fact that the MG F was the best
selling convertible and the ZR the best selling hot hatch.

I don't think anybody is stupid enough to buy a fun car with the idea that it's going to be value.
If you put a price on making you enjoy yourself I think the results would look a little different.
If we all worked on value alone we would all drive Toyota avensis' or alternative dull uninspiring crap.
Oi, leave my tin top alone, its got feelings. Last time i started to think about changing it, it broke down and I had to get the AA out....
Loooovely, fun, enjoyable drivers car my Astra, soooooo much better than the toy car i'm building!
Some where out in merkin land there is a guy who thinks his dads Chrysler 180 was the best car ever.
Did anybody ever pay 17k for a 416 I think not more like 10 was what deallers asked.
