Britain’s Halloween-horror car has been identified.
Using data from its repair records, Warranty Direct says it would have an engine from the Mitsubishi Outlander, steering and gearbox from a Chevrolet Tacuma, axle and suspension from a Mazda 5, brakes from a Mazda MX-5, electrics of the Lexus GS, and the air-conditioning system taken from a Honda CR-V.
It would break down on a monthly basis and average repair each time would be £487.
David Gerrans, Managing Director of Warranty Direct said, “This Halloween vehicle is the culmination of motorists’ nightmares, guaranteeing inconvenient and expensive breakdowns if it was ever to be built.
“Thankfully it is fictional and can’t be found on the market, nonetheless, it does highlight the Achilles heel of different vehicles, some of which are generally reliable, but could cause a fright as a result of a rogue component.”
