    My car

    This car is the most unreliable heap of tin I have ever had the misfortune to drive.

    It holds the road, it is great to throw into corners and its performance is great. But...

    It breaks down with major and minor component failure. In one year and 30k miles, my car went through five clutches, two gearboxes, three engine management systems, three exhausts, two door rubbers, two locks were replaced, the front suspension was broken on delivery and had to be replaced before it came out of the garage.

    The next one started to go the same way and I sold it at a colossol loss.

    The cost of ownership in year one, including depriciation, was £12,600 - plus warranty repairs of another £13,980.
