Steph Bee's Honey Pit

A Renault Scenic. It was fine until the first thing went wrong. Then it was another...and another...and another. The mysterious slow oil leak deep in the guts of the thing was never adequately fixed. Eventually the next round of estimated repair costs exceeded the residual value, so I got shot of it. These days it's a Volkswagen Touran - a distinctly higher quality build all round and a damn sight more reliable and less expensive to maintain.
