How many of you have taken the " !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! " yet? I did it first with my dad's newer V70 and got ~30%-40%...

However, his old ' 87-89 740 turbo manual wagon netted this...

How I wish we still had that car... It could have been my first car, you know... :(

Looked identical to this...

Anyways, how did your cars do on the quiz, and what cars do you wish you still have?

(Unrelated but still cool, though my dad's not a car collector, he's an engineer...)

With my current car a 1995 Saturn I only got a 6-10%. Time to test it with my old Civic Si.

My Lada also pulled the 71-80%, although I'm a little miffed about my Comanche only scoring the six-ten.

Well, the definition of Jalop is basically whatever floats your boat, as long as you're a car enthusiast, your car is Jalop, even if it's a Camry (it's all in how you drive it!)

I got 70% with the Z. My diesel w123 Merc got 6% the way I answered, that seems low. Inline 5 turbo diesel that is basically a tank? Come on. Vacuum systems run things in it, bridges the classic and modern Mercedes cars. Travesty.

My Corvair scored 71-80. XJ12 only scored 6-10, which is a little weird for a rare, v12 powered 30 year old British sedan...especially since my Civic scored like 20-30%.

All my cars scored the same 61-70%. Not sure if the quiz was broken or if they all just scored the same.

(Vanagon, Classic mini. E-Type)

My Saabaru Aero with a stick got a 61-70%, which I'd definitely agree with.

Awesome car!

That is very low for a Diesel W123...you might want to ask to have that changed...

Manual, turbo, wagons for life!... That motto is actually what's making finding a new replacement for the Saabaru so unbelievably difficult.

Here's hoping when all those "our age" (I'm broadly speaking about those who at the oldest have young children, I'm 28 myself) will rebel against the SUVs so many of our parents bought and do so by bringing the wagon back.

Haha, I'm younger than you think, since I'm only 15, but yes, we need to save the wagons!

Haha, yeah, that's why I focused on broadly speaking younger than those with young children. I'd say MOST of Oppo is 15-35 from my entirely scientific anecdotal evidence....

lol my xj6 scored the same. So by jalop logic a 1 cyl engine is just as jalop as a v16

All your cars are very Jalop.

Also, the quiz was broken.

I think you might have the most Jalop garage of them all.

The car I'm most likely to wind up driving, a 1997 Honda City, wound up with a 21-30% Jalop rating. Well, I'm not likely to be able to actually drive a RM 10K NB Miata for a good while anyway...
