Saxo Crap Build Quaility

[scook]

Only had the saxo a couple of months (VTS V reg 80000 miles) and its bleeding me dry every day something else seems to go wrong with it.

List of faults

Alternater belt split
Power steeing pipe came loose
seal gone on ariel so leaks when it rains
ignition swith has faulty wiring *no ps, hetaed rear screen

keeps cutting out and looseing power (A couple of times a week), engine doesent tick over that well

airbag light keeps flashing

Engine runs hot (at about 3/4 temp if stuck in traffic for five min)

new battery

I have managed to have the battery,ps pipe,alternater belt, and airbag light.

Still afair bit still to sort out , Dont get me wrong when its working is a cool fast car, its just gets on my nearves when all these faults keep occuring.
