tell me about it even if they arnt you family they think they should get it sorted for nothing , i sold my blue mk1 astra to some old boy a few weeks ago and when i saw him i said car alright he said not bad then he said what car is that you are in ? i said a 17 td mk3 astra he said could i have that instead so i said yes , wanted him to have that in the first place so we done a deal and he had it 3 days and he f--ked the clutch up so he was pi--ed off, but i cant see y tho because my mate when he had it put a new one in about 3 months ago, so anyway he gets his work done for nothing around my friends a new clutch fitted free of charge then 3 days later he comes back and said the clutch has gone again and its has , what the fu-k does he do to his cars trying to pull way in 3rd gear all the time what a muppet he come to me first and i said if you bought it from a auction you could not take it back and say the clutch has gone what are you gona do about it and the old git should of stuck with my good old blue mk1 big grin on top of all that it had a full mot put on it , which it needed 2 bits of welding and a track rod end , which the old git got done for nothing off my mate as well , so it was a cheap car for £300 which he only payed £200 of as my mate payed the rest for him , sorry for the long post big grin
