Default Cars that cost less than a brand new smartphone

As title says, there is an artical on msn and our cars are on the list. But our segment is not very flattering when our cars first came out. Is it true?

Sorry wrong quote reffering to the artical. Most of the negative around our cars were mostly directed at MGROVER as a company i think. It was 2001 and the whole BMW thing.

LOL i have owned 3 of the cars on that list

Fiat panda 100HP, bags of fun but feels like there is no suspension at all.

BMW Z3 2.0 VERY heavy to drive

Rover 75 Absolutely brilliant to drive, gorgeous to look at, reliable, do I need to go on ???

Just a reminder
