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.
>>15166922
Mitsubishi GTO (3000GT) VR4
Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo
MG MGA
Any ford
Anything Italian.
BMW E32 750
BMW E31 850
1972 Opel GT.
Not really unreliable, but parts are an absolute bitch
Old Italian supercars are one of the best ways to make your life utterly miserable.
Poorly maintained FD?
>>15166922
Buy a Ford ranger, or a Dodge Durango, or any American car really.
V12 jaguar xj
Could always do an SVX?
>>15166922
Just get a Maserati.
any jaguar, or anything british for that matter

>couple things need tending to on my ranger
>no sweat, pull them out and swap them
i love my ranger. terrible post, my friend
>>15166940
the z32 not z31
>>15166922
89 Cutlass Supreme SL
Or a Bronco 2
>>15166922
Chrysler 300M
Everything is placed in an inconvenient way throughout the engine bay
You're going to want something midengined, a Lotus Espirit will do it
>>15167444
Or a rotten mr2 brought back to showroom condish.
pic very much related, do it fagget!
Quality was mediocre, parts are impossible to find and they got the typical 80s-90s Alfa reliability
>>15166922
Range Rover
civic/corolla
>>15167491
>those
>unreliable
Pay attention stupid
>>15167402
God you're dumb
American cars are easy as fuck to fix, like other anon said parts just switch in and out without much effort unless they are rusted
Audi S4. Pic very related.
>>15166922
OP pls
There's wrenching and then there's masochism, you're walking the razor's edge
>>15167421
Z31 never came with twin turbos
>>15167615
does that whole chain controller run in oil?
buy the most riced out pile of shit civic, and bring it back to stock
>>15166922
Testarossa, non T Mondial, Maserati BiTurbo
twin tarbo FD
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.
>>15167932
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.
>>15168091
On that note, add the Audi Allroad to the list of hellish used cars.
>>15167946
>>15167414
>>15166992
>>15167021
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.
>>15167408
Can understand they look like a nightmare at first sight but they're surprisingly nice to work on.
>>15168111
So how about an Allroad with a V8 swap for the ultimate maintenance nightmare?
>>15167414
He didnt say he wanted a shit car
>>15166922
British Leyland anything maybe ? Esp. Jaguar.
get a motherfucking yugo
>>15168208
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.
>>15168166
Only if it's S4 V8. The rest of their V8s just have mildly annoying timing belts.
>>15166940
>Mitsubishi GTO
>Z32
You really swallow all the shit copy pasta from /o/ 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.
Anything with a transverse v6
>Oh you need access to anything on the far side of the engine?
>Good luck with that
>>15168293
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.
>>15166922
Mine is pretty fucking nightmare inducing. Getting to anything is damn near impossible.
>>15167402
Ah yes opposite of truth troll strikes again
1993 Ford Taurus SHO.
Be sure to buy the cheapest one possible.
>>15166922
Lambretta, any year, any model
>>15169025
I know you're not talking about the engine
>>15169098
I'm not.
I'm talking about literally everything else about the car.
>>15169132
That's what I thought, cheers
>>15167014
Really? My dad is working on one right now, and he can find everything he needs online.
>>15169144
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.
>>15167615
you're fucktarded because there's no more timing chains than in typical V-whatever
>>15169182
And weren't the transmissions terrible as well?

>>15169233
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?
>>15166922
>My budget is 80k USD
No it's not.
>>15169263
Yep.
>>15167496
>responding to bait
Tesla
Oh wait you can't even work on the because
>Closed source software
>>15168091
the "mechanical adjusters" are variable valve timing solenoids
>>15169300
>replying to a 4 hour old post
Wew
>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.
>>15169233
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.
>>15169386
Then again in return you get Grandfathers clock on Steroids MANY STEROIDS
>>15169386
>>15166922
With your budget, probably a Ferrari 308 GTS
>>15167000
>BMW E32 750/BMW E31 850
>My budget is 80k USD.
If he's careful that might be just enough.
>>15169405
Got passed by one of those in Austria once, they make a wicked sound.
>>15167615
What's that in the background, xxxxl-micrometer?
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.

Lamborgini Espada
The wiring in those things are what Electrical Engineers nightmares are made of
