Car wrecks on the deck

if you’re crazy about motoring, you’ll love this. Crap Cars Series 1 is a set of playing cards with a difference – as it features some of the worst models of all-time.

No matter what you drive now, you’ll probably have to run an ‘old banger’ at some time. The Top Trumps-style deck celebrates this with 52 of the world’s biggest lemons.

On each card, the model’s attributes in 10 categories are listed. These include normal statistics such as engine capacity, price, 0-60mph time and stopping distance, but also add quirky figures such as windscreen wiper speed, surface area rust, oil consumption and the cost to pass an MoT. There’s an overall crap factor, too.

As in Top Trumps, players try to outdo each other with their hand, and the winner is the person who takes all the cards. Each one also carries a traditional suite, so you can use the deck to play traditional games, too.
