Have you not noticed a pattern emerging that almost every car on the market has it's weak points?
It's like with myself doing over 20k a year, do I now sell my 320D because some of them stretch their chains? Amber should sell her Mini because the power steering pumps go noisy & they use rover 25 cheese gearboxes? My old man should sell his twin top astra incase the roof mechanism spazzes out, Best not get an XUD 'case it sticks a rod through it's block, forget any Renaults, them & electrics..corr.. Best not get 99% of diesels just incase the DMF rattles, turbo gets noisey, DPF gets blocked, EGR clogs, can't get a petrol cause they're too thirsty for 6k a year, can't get an older derv because they have high mileage & tax is expensive..
Something's gotta give?
I'm not being horrible Tom & I'm sure you know that from our chats in the past, I want to help you, but come on mate you've got to compromise somewhere.
