Austin Maxi - known by the press as a British "Volvo" without the reliability lol... - as for owning them, I've known people who swear by them, and others who have had to swear at them...

Interestingly here in New Zealand, there is a Maxi that some-one professionally converted into a PICK-UP, complete with a fibreglass canopy!!!
