There’s an article in the FT’s personal finance section today complaining about the poor quality of airport car rental. Nothing especially interesting in and of itself were it not for the author’s disdain for the hapless Megane and a description of her Irish rentacar that I felt others here could relate to...

I just remember this description from Racing:

Fiat Punto, 2013 (I think)

"The skins of rice puddings need not fear the Punto drivetrain."

I remember the one I rented needed to take a run up at the hill to my mother's house and I couldn't set the cruise at the usual 140kph because it wouldn't actually get there!

You go and pee, your drink is so safe with me….
