Well,
Most of you know I went to buy this vectra earlier -
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1999-VAUXHALL-...6rk%3D1%26
Anyway, damn good spec and actually drove well too, first auto I've driven...so for £400 I had it.
Drove 15miles to Sainsburys.....came out of sainsburys to find a puddle of coolant and a lot of hissing and fizzing!
Filled it up, drove home, had lost most of its coolant again!
Phoned up the guy and, respect to him, he did say how sorry he was about it, he genuinely didn't know, and I could bring the car back and get my money back.
So thats what I've just done.
2hours of car ownership, gotta be a record hasn't it? Must've even beaten Jordan at that lol.
So yeah NEED a car over the weekend, if anyone knows of a decent one either locally or will be happy to drive it over here for me then I'll more than likely take you up on the offer (price dependant)!
Cheers
Tom
