Midas is number 1!

[skip_rat]

Of course we all knew that

If you go to page 9 in this months Practical Classics (April 2009) there is a top 5 of mini-based cars, the Midas gets number 1

Better than number 14 in the MSN ugly list!

I don't really understand the ugly lists. They're usually packed with really cool cars. Like Ford Pinto, Austin Princess, Volvo 480 ES, Citroën AMI etc. And quite often you find the AMC Pacer/Gremlin on the top spots. I've always fancied one! I actually wrote about the ugly lists in my previous "Staff Cars" column, because I didn't have any technical niggles with the Midas to talk about.
