Very disappointing

The car was purchased with 43000 miles on clock,and with three months' warranty.

In month five, the car broke down. All coolant had been lost. I managed to find a replacement engine, same size, that had previously been in a Corsa, at same mileage. Cost with fitting was ~ £2000. The mechanic pressure tested the system, but we're still loosing water. It needs topping up every 100 miles.


Last week the immobiliser locked. Not had the garage bill for that repair yet.

My wife wants to get rid of the vehicle,although I am reluctant having so far paid about £6500.
