Armageddon according to you know who was coming in 1975, how many Armageddon bangers (a ref. To the purchase of a car that would see you through to Armageddon,) how many have you purchased up till now? I have had 8 and counting.

Due to funds, currently, I may have to settle for an Armageddon Banger, and I didn't even know about them, lol. Too funny.

But when I was a JW, 1984, my 12 year-old car at that time was ready for the graveyard and I was debating New or Used car. And the CO's wife gave me the "permission" I was needing (guilt trip) when she said, "You're single and single women need GOOD CARS, so get a NEW CAR."

And so I did! (and it was a 4-door, lol).

(Prior to that I always had new cars, though I keep them a LONG TIME).

And after that I had another new car.

I hate used cars (I don't care about depreciation on the new ones, used cars are too much hassle), but have had to settle for "used" the last two times, unfortunately.

Perhaps for your USA audience you should have called it 'An Armageddon Lemon'

A lemon is a defective car that, when purchased new or used, is found by the purchaser to have numerous or severe defects not readily apparent before the purchase. Any vehicle with these issues can be termed a 'lemon,'.

'Banger' entered into Google brings some rather risque answers!

In many parts of the U.S. and on the "Car Talk" radio show, worn out cars are called "beaters". Currently driving a 16 year old Toyota, although I hardly think of it as a "beater", its in really good shape, and runs great. Perhaps it would be a beater if it were an American car.
