The weirdest quirk I ever had in a car was my first car - an MG ZR 120. Brilliant fun car, but it had a habit of trying to kill me every now and then when turning right out of a T-junction. Basically, every now and then it'd just lose almost all of its power when pulling away, and it was only ever with turning right at a T-junction. Being a new driver, having only ever driven a surprisingly-reliable brand new small Peugeot up to that point, it caused quite the significant panic...during which I discovered the only way to avoid being killed by oncoming traffic - clutch in, rev it up past 5.5krpm and dump the clutch. Of course, this had the effect of suddenly launching me forward, into a gap that may or may not have still been there given that I'd just trundled out into the middle of the road at about 4mph. Loved that car, but I'm not convinced it loved me back.

@@phur3i0n - I've currently got a ZS 180, and the clutch - aside from badly needing a replacement - is similarly an on/off device rather than the usual smooth continuous affair. I don't care, though, because it's an otherwise hilarious car. I may even chuck it in for a "Roast My Ride" at some point, just to see if the boys have a) a properly-developed sense of humour, and b) taste that goes beyond "Hurrr, durrrr, E36..." ;)

I asked whether it should be time to start braking instead of still accelerating, to which he replied, don't worry....with literally the lightest of touches on the brake pedal and the tiniest left right flick of the steering wheel we had navigated said round about with 0 body roll and I was absolutely astonished at how quick it went across!

Yep, I got a first gen. Saab 9-3 cabriolet from 2001. It has it own unique quirks, fun car! A very solid 2.0L turbo engine, which can make (with stock everything, only stage 1) 230 HP and 350 Nm. It will actually leave Golf GTI's behind when you have good gear shifts and launches (and tires)! Do not expect a sporty (as in good steering) car. The steering is a bit weird, because you can feel every bump and is quite direct (while it is comfortable, with a big steering wheel, etc.) while the car itself is lacking some body rigidity (you need to make some steering corrections in corners when you are pushing it) while the car is being set up for comfort

I had a Citroen Xsara estate affectionately known as the green turd which was full of annoying quirks but stubbornly refused to ever manifest a proper mechanical issue and die. The locks did the whole whack-a-mole thing for ages until the drivers door lock and door handle died entirely, to 'solve' this issue I simply stopped locking the car (who'd want to steal it?) and had to open the rear door and reach through and open the drivers door from the inside, this habit still plagues me and I have to fight the urge to open the rear door first 2 cars later. Another quirk was that the front electric windows seemed to change switches every other day, sometimes you'd try to open the drivers window and the passenger window would open, sometimes the drivers, sometimes both or sometimes neither. The windscreen wipers wouldn't work unless the lights were on which was inconvenient but not the end of the world. The rear windscreen wiper worked occasionally but only for the purpose of making you jump, you wouldn't realise you'd knocked the stalk forward until it suddenly screeched across the rear window at random and then returned to its slumber. The automatic choke was a really bastard below 12C and would come on intermittently as you were driving, it'd be running fine and then it'd start lurching and stinking of fuel to the point where I reckon I was getting about 10mpg out of a 1.4 in the cooler months, the only cure was to rev the tits off it until it started to overheat and then it'd stop. Interestingly the auto choke wouldn't work on really cold mornings until roughly the 4th attempt at starting so that was fun. The final quirk that I can remember was actually an intentional design feature that didn't really work as intended at any stage between leaving the factory and being scrapped from the design about 2yrs later. The car had passive rear wheel steering which allowed a bit of toe out on the outside wheel when under load, this was supposed to make the long ass boat of a car more nimble in car parks. The problem was that you couldn't really get sufficient load into the outside wheel to activate it at car park speed, it only happened at 30+ when you chucked the car into a corner with some gusto. It wasn't super dangerous or anything but every now and then you'd get the car leaning into a bend and then you'd get a weird kind of oversteer creeping in and you had to reduce the steering angle slightly to correct for it. It only caught me out once when the boot was slightly overloaded and I spun on a roundabout as the car suddenly decided to oversteer about halfway round an otherwise normal turn. I do kind of miss the green turd in a strange way, it was slow, shit and a disaster waiting to happen but it'd always get you where you needed to go despite constantly threatening not to. Oh and the warning lights would always briefly flash on at 72 mph, no idea why, guess it got scared or something?

The weirdest quirk i ever experienced was in my first car, a 1987 Jaguar XJ-S that I bought second hand in 2011 for $1500. The windscreen seal leaked so whenever it rained water would leak down into the fuse box and short out various circuits including the windscreen wipers. The net effect was having functioning windscreen wipers up until it would start to rain at which point they'd just stop in the middle of the windscreen. The heater would always stop working in the winter and the A/C would always cease function around May of each year as well.

Any new's on starting your own channel? The whole of KZbin would like to see you guy's move up in the world and start buying supercars! I don't think you guy's realise how much you make this channel what it is, just like top gear, there nothing without Clarkson and the boys so either get paid well or do your own things were all behind you.

My favourite quirk a car had was my old polo: The central locking (vacuum system) broke, so being the poor student I was, I just used the key in the door... Until I broke the door lock, and only a week or two later I broke the passenger lock, so I had to open the boot, and lean in the car to open the door from the inside. Sometimes I'd just jump in the car entirely from the boot. Oh, and it would also randomly cut out while driving. I had 3 garages look at it, including a proper VW dealer, and nobody could figure it out (or wanted to proper diagnose it)

That's a vacuum leak but it sounds of the way it stall those when you're driving along or taking off was it idling weird as well

@@neilmurphy845 The car actually ran pretty well, it had some idling issues, but I fixed that by cleaning the junk out of the throttle body, it had new sparkplugs and everything, when it ran, it ran pretty well. Then in the middle of driving, it would cut out sometimes, often I could just restart it like James does, while still in motion, but sometimes it just wouldn't restart for a while until it had sat for a bit. The problem got worse over time, and nobody could figure it out, so I sadly got rid of it. It wasn't overheating either, it must've been some electronics gremlin.

to jacks "quirk": the passat of my parents had a similar issue. it always switched to this mode when it was still cold/ not fully warmed up and you gave a bit more throttle. it was a gummed up particle filter. the problem was "solved" by driving the car, once warmed up, kinda high revving for some time every now and then burning the filter free of any residue (since we live in germany we would just go down the autobahn at 200kph for 20mins. obviously when we actually had to go somewhere, not just for the heck of it)

The only weird quirk I've had so far was with my Renault 5, I turned right on an intersection, floored it and the car went back to idle, stopped responding to throttle. Pressed in the clutch tried revving, no response, let go of the clutch and I had throttle again. Never happened again

I have my E30 as a daily driver and it’s quirky for sure lol. My driver’s window gets stuck and won’t roll up or down until I violently slam the door while holding the button down. I need to smack the dash to get the left half of the dash lights and the tempt gauge to turn on. The car charger is just a decoration at this point. The fender liners like to unmount themselves randomly every few weeks. My ignition key can be easily pulled out while the car is running, and It only locks from the trunk. It’s the best car I have ever and I wouldn’t give it up for anything! And the M50 swap has (almost) never failed me in the last 15-20k miles

Shooting-brake and coupé are the coolest body styles in my opinion. I do like a 5 series saloon or any American muscle saloon. But a fast car has got to be a coupe or shooting brake 👌🏻
