Tally Report post Posted November 18, 2008 It's taken an AGE, but finally my car is roadworthy again! I've had to take it back and forth to the garage to get some repairs done before it could get through an MOT and service, but the MOT threw up MORE problems, and I have FINALLY got it all dealt with! I could have bought a car for the amount I have had to spend. I was recently offered a slightly newer car of the same make a model at a really good price, but after all the problems I have had (and continue to have) with this one . . . erm . . . no!

Flora Report post Posted November 18, 2008 Isn't it awful the amount of money we have to spend on cars? I hate spending money on my car, but I'd hate to be without it more. Flora Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flora Report post Posted November 18, 2008 I know what you mean. Actually, my car is dreadful. I haven't actually cleared it out since the spring, and when I opened the passenger door the other day a crisp packet tumbled out and blew away... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted November 18, 2008 I was embarrassed when I took it to the garage, but I managed to stuff most of it into the pockets on the doors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warrenpenalver Report post Posted November 18, 2008 hopefully if youve now replaced most of the bits that wear out, then it should be ok for a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
