The New 2012 Ford
 
Renault and Ford have joined forces to create the perfect small car for women. Mixing the Renault 'Clio' and the Ford 'Taurus' they have designed the 'Clitaurus'. It comes in pink, and the average male car thief won't be able to find it - let alone turn it on - even if someone tells him where it is and how to do it.
Rumor has it though, that it leaks transmission fluid once a month, and can be a real bitch to start in the morning!!!!! Some have reported that on cold winter mornings, when you really need it, you can't get it to turn over.
New models are initially fun to own, but very costly to maintain, and horribly expensive to get rid of. Used models may initially appear to have curb appeal and a low price, but eventually have an increased appetite for fuel, and the curb weight typically increases with age.
Manufacturers are baffled as to how the size of the trunk increases, but say that the paint may just make it LOOK bigger.
This model is not expected to reach collector status. Most owners find it is best to lease one, and replace it every few years.

I hear they are very picky about tires and owners have to keep several sets of tires around as well as a lot of different waxes and lubricants to keep the paint nice.

This car has been out in Europe for years marketed as the "Cli-Taurus". It's well known for its quirks, extremely high maintainance, unreliable and impossible to trade when the milage gets big. The transmission leak is thought to linked to the lunar cycle but doesn't seem to be a problem with the 'stick shift' models. They were marketed as a sporty, economical and desirable car for younger drivers to be seen in, any owner will tell you they quickly become dated, troublesome and very costly to run. They are impossible to get statred in damp or cold weather and for some reason they cannot be jump started. The convertable models are useless in Europe, July is the only month in the year when you'll see them with the tops down, any other time and the weather doesn't suit. Bottom line, stay clear of these cars, get yourself a second Valkyrie with your surplus money..
