Made the same sorta mistake i did, still ruhns fine now, only cost me about £1500 to get up to scratch
dunno what happened, cuz the car looked mint and sounded mint, just over the past month it has got worse n worse
but thakfully i have the resources to fix it [tools, storage, garage, lift, hoist, fully qualified mechanic] so should be really really nice when finished

lol or make sure you have a mate whos an mot tester :wink: but i know for a fact the car is safe cos he checks it out b4 the test!!!! cos theres no way i would risk my life if my willy was unsafe!
well i aint gonna be driving it until it is fixed, not worth it
