The Pointless Car Thread! (Cars you just don't understand).

Post the cars you just don't understand the point of existence of them.

I'll start with this...

Fiat Panda 100 HP.

All bark but no Bite!

Actually, the Panda 100 hp has received lots of favourable reviews, saying how it has put fun back into affordable motoring etc.

Well...after reading Clarkson's review on this car, I thought he was alone.

Thing is though, I drove one today and I obligated to report, that I'm on Jezza's side.

-It is loud, but not something to rev about.

-It is faster than the the average Panda, but still will not stir the adrenaline.

-Handles better than the normal Panda, but still feels like a tall skinny little bus.

The Panda 100 HP really is an angry Panda - It's an Aggressive queer but still is a queer.

The Caparo T1. I mean what sort of non formula/open wheel pro will be able to drive it ?!

Forget the Angry Panda!

I found a car that just oozes sheer pointlessness. Quite simply the most pointless car currently on sale in Europe.

Ladies and Gentlemen...I give you the utterly, utterly useless...

...Cadillac BLS.

A total waste of the money that could have been better spent on something else...how about the development of a new Saab 9-5 for instance?

I actually like the Panda a lot.

This is one car I totally hate. I can almost murder the driver of one, if he ever had the misfortune of meeting me.

I too love the little Panda - very stylish IMO with just the right amount of aggression. I would love to drive one..

Pointless cars?

I can't help but laugh at the BLS. I hope the estate fails for them aswell..

I actually like the Roadster-Coupé, it's quite good looking and drives as well as the normal one.

Yet, I can't quite see the sense in an option of a folding roof just yet....something jut doesn't hit me right about it...
