Carmageddon

[AnthonyH]

The clutch on my GP has gone at the same time as the exhaust. Today!

My EVO is misfiring, probably needs new plugs. One of the strut mounts is creaking. Both this week!

My 500X needs the strut in the living room back on it and a new windscreen. Less said about this the better!

The pleasures of owning multiple vehicles, I have just had Vehicle Tax reminders for two of mine today.

You only need two for breeding purposes.

Just a thought…….maybe niggly Italian cars aren’t for you??? You’re probably a bit too far down the line to go back now though

Yes this.
You should get a Panda
Dirt cheap and they never go wrong

Maybe you'd find that a bit boring though

Depends how strong the windscreens are on them, if you can drop a ratchet on it at approximately 30cm and it doesn’t crack then yes, i agree his next purchase should be a Panda!

It might not want to go back on the car, it might be half way through an episode of Car SOS or something, have you asked it?

I imagine Italian cars are like the friendly cat that viciously bites you, then immediately goes back to being all nice again lol

I'm 5 Fiats one after the other. I will be buying another Fiat next year, I can't be persuaded otherwise. The Pandas are sounding good at the moment

Well the strut went back on but the drop link was " no sir I'm staying right where I am. " So I've ordered another one.

It took me 6 weeks to do my first clutch so the next only needs to be 5 weeks!

Are they more reliable than a Fiat 500? I could do with boring right now lol

You might surprise yourself, things tend to go a lot smoother when you’re not going in blind. Is it slipping or a catastrophic failure?

The throw out bearing is whistling at me, it's the original one at 100,000 miles, so very high.

Took me a lifetime to remove the driveshaft so I'll be ready next time Ready for the war lol

Which two Fiats bred to make the Multipla or is it a cross breed?!
