Not quite the bingo set - you would need to include the "A" series engined original Mini and the 1100/1300 series, both very popular in their day (and Christ I am an old fart!)

drove a mini once, didn't like the fact it was forcing me to feel like a midget bus driver in a mobile ash tray at the time....also my (very briefly) pash once drove a bright yellow KDU812V so I swore off them for life.

What about the MG versions of the Maestro, Metro and Montego.
I had the MG Maestro, it was fun for a month until it became too embarassing to keep ignoring my workmates advice to get shut of it as it was "a twats car" and would refuse to accept a lift home in it due to the embarassment of being seen in one, much like me and my friends apallingly noisy and smelly Skoda Estelle or one of my ex girlfriend's yellow Fiat 126.
