I too had an Almera hire car back in 1999. I had it for 2 months, and had it not broken down would have had it for longer. ‘Mine’ was a saloon as well I recall. The only car I’ve ever had that has actually broken down and left me stranded! A gearbox failure as I recall. Mind you, the only car I’ve scrapped as a result of rust was a 1984 Escort XR3i. That kicked the bucket at 8 years old... No wonder they’re worth a few quid now; most must have rusted away years ago.
