this week ive been really anoyed with the car and my cash situation,
first off had a leak with the car then people on here helped me and said that it could be the windscreen, so went to rac windscreens he took the scuttle off and there was a hole so put some sealer in that, but it hasent sorted it  , so got to take it back thursday for a reseal then yesturday the exhaust started to rattle like mad so will have to check that out at work tomorrow, With all this going on and other things cash is low on the ground and ive got crimbo coming up and aint got any presents, just thought id get it off my chest, anyone else having one of those months????

yea know how you feel mate, my cars been leaking since august and cant seem to fix it, just keep a bundle of towels in the boot and drain it out every morning lol mine leaking under the windscreen too but cant find where, ive used 4 tubes of sealant and it still leaks lol. also central locking broke yesterday, lucky i was outside my house cause i was in the car and its had the door pins out so i was locked in, had to get daddy to run out with the spare key and get me out, now i can only unlock 1 door at a time! but then thats the joy you get from owning a saxo! im skint aswell with no xmas pressies so im thinking bout handing out some free love coupons for now, or I.O.Us.

I've just spent 2400 quid on an engine for my mini, only to find out that the engine steady's aren't strong enough to cope with the power (yeah they are uprated one's).
It managed to shear the main bolt on the engine side last nite, so now i have to try and remove the sheared bolt from my week old block :shock:
Oh the joys....

Im glad im not the only one having a bad month. They say bad luck comes in 3's but i had more than that. My gf breaks up with me after four years, the saxo then starts to leak again, still got a horrible cluncking noise coming from the front after changing the balljoints and bushes so still trying to work that one out, then it fails its mot and i need to replace the torsion bar and attachment braket. All this then Insurance renewall. Now christmas no money no girl and a busted car that im worried about driving.......... roll on the new year!!!!

that is a bad month mate, think on the up point though ! No g/f = no pressents to buy her = money to fix the saxo or go out on the lash, either way really
