Brilliant!
The petrol station attendant opposite my mum's house had one of these Alfasud.

A mate had one of those.
If you stood close enough, you could hear it rust

Someone did drive into me and the front of the car 'fell of, due to rust'.

Reliant Rebel. Bloody front wheel bearings collapsed when I did my emergency stop! Made horrible grumbling noises for the rest of the test. I think the examiner was very glad to get out!

Fantastic! Mate of mine had a series of them when we were students. "Rusty" just doesn't BEGIN to describe the state they were in, but those flat 4 motors were an absolute jewel!
