Have you ever felt like you've had the unlukiest car in the world?
I sold my Astra 1.6 Astra sport about 6 years ago to buy a Vauxhall Astra Estate (for my dogs). On way to work one morning, we heard a loud bang from the estate and then no power! Got out and oil was flowing freely from under the car. A conrod had came through the wall of the engine. We got a recon engine put into it after this, but within 4 weeks, the fanbelt (which was new at service only 6 weeks before) snapped and went up inside the housing case, you guessed it, fecked the engine again. I decided that i was not spending anymore money on it and traded it for a laguna.
