MIKE Brewer has revealed the car he would never touch and has slammed the "hideous" motor brand as his "nemesis".

The motors expert has reviewed and traded almost every car brand and type under the sun.

But there's only one motor that he has described as his "kryptonite".

Brewer revealed the motor that he hates in a question and answer event on his Facebook page where one person asked him the question.

He said: “Do you know what. I’ve never been asked that. What car would I never do? Yeah there is. It's a great question.

“Apologies to anyone out there who’s got one and likes them but I'm pretty vocal about how much I don't like them.

“It would be a Chrysler PT Cruiser, convertible, in yellow. That would be my nemesis. That’s my kryptonite."

The PT Cruiser was made between 2000 and 2010 by the American giant and its design was intended to be reminiscent of the 1930s.

But the car, which can do zero to 60mph in between nine and 12 seconds, has been widely lambasted for its looks.

Brewer said: "I can't stand yellow cars and I can't stand the PT cruiser and I can't stand a convertible even more.

"They are just hideous. Some kid after he took an overdose of Calpol got a crayon and drew the worst design ever. He needs a punch whoever designed it. He does. Sorry if you've got one. It's hideous.”

In one 2021 poll, the PT Cruiser was thought to be the third worst "banger" of all time.

Footballing superstar Sergio Aguero also survived a crash in one that left him with broken ribs.

Aguero was riding in the taxi as a passenger when it collided with a post on the way home from a concert in Holland.

Maybe because of their looks the motors are cheap to buy.
