let me get this right you swapped a dead bmw that should be wrote off for a rotton scobby that is going to blow well if im honest mate i hope it does its people like you and the guy that sold you the car that make it so hard for anyone to buy a good car

when i sell a car im as honest as i can be and i can only hope people are in return

its not like me to comment on threads in this way but i got ripped on a car i bought a few years ago and after i few phone calls and a visit all was sorted

well back to the point i hope it blows up sooner rather than later for you mate as you desurve nothig less at least you got back what you desurved

Yeah there was a leak in the front mounted intercooler causing it, I got the crank for £380 in the end and I paid one of my colleagues £200 to fit it for me, so £580 all in plus had it all cleaned out while he was doing it, I just left the car round his and let him get on with it so it's getting there slowly
