    Sal - that's a pain. Everything crossed it is because of the oil change. I'm dreading buying another car in case I buy something which breaks down as soon as i get it :( Went for a pootle and the first 3 garages I passed in about a mile from home were all closed this afternoon so I gave up. I could have looked at the cars but I want to sit in a few rather than just peer through windows etc.

    I don't know Buffy, there isn't a number to call, it's all email. This sucks, chatting on skype keeps us going when he's away, I don't know how we'd cope without it.

    Toto, could you not set up a new account? Or doesnt it work like that? I hope its sorted soon however :)

    Louise, Thanks :A I will certainly join in either way :D

    BB I really hope its nothing major, although Im glad i took out the extended warranty which covers an awful lot of problems :) Must dig out the paperwork and see what I need to do to claim on it! Shall have to raid B's savings which I feel awful about but I really can't ask Mum for anymore money and feel highly embarrased that this car is already causing problems after less than a week :eek:
