OneEyedMonster remindes us about the crap you can buy in pound shops: "Batteries that lasted about an hour and then died. A screwdriver with a loose handle so I couldn't turn the damn screw, and a tape measure which wasn't at all accurate."
Similarly, my neighbour bought a lawnmower from Argos that was so cheap the wheels didn't go round, it sort of skidded over the grass whilst gently back-combing it.
What's the cheapest, most useless crap you've bought?

as far as buying replacement parts for it goes.
I had a Leon for 3 years, flogged it 4 months ago after:
The Windscreen leaked and came back to my car to discover a 2 inch puddle in passenger footwell
3 ignition coils needed replacing
Gear box turned lovely and spongy requring extra effort to change gear
Clutch was on the way out
Buying a Leon instead of a Golf is like going to the market and buying Adidash trainers. Spend the extra and get the quality. I now drive a Toyota and after months very please with it!
