I was due to buy a Impreza WRX at the end of the month, but I may have to buy one sooner after my 03 Vectra's epic MOT Failure...7 failures and 8 adversaries is impressive, haha!!

Thats not bad, you could repair all that for about £100, ive failed ka's and punto's in the past with 3 pages of failures, transits are another for big failures aswell.

I would say a garage would repair that lot for under £200.

You should have seen the bill when my Xantia failed: £1250....FIVE suspension spheres, plus front suspension parts

I had a Ford Puma that needed new front wishbones because the bushings rotted every year. EVERY YEAR!!!

Subaru ftw - deals with far more g-force and twice the speed, hasn't failed an mot in the 3 years we've had it, even though it's now older than the Puma was.
