i know how you feel but my worst car was a nice silver vw golf gt tdi it looked the dogs bits parked there on the garage forecourt, so the wife bought it all was happy until we went on hols to cornwall, we filled up down there at a bp station,two miles down the road and engine managment light went on and the car just stopped,calledvw garage and they sent out one of there recovery boys to sort car out he just plugged in pc and went o'dear the engine was dead. car on trailer (still looked the dogs bits up there)back to vw. week later got a call fromvw engine dead due to wrong fuel being used,i just told them it was filled with the correct fuel and that i had a receipt which would confirm i had used diesel.but no luck they blamed us so i called there boss he already new about problems and told him to give us our money back all of it or we will see them in court he choice court and lost,was told to refund price of car plus court costs and compenstion for our time he did offer a replacment vw but told him to keep it and so we got a c-max 2.0tdci ghia and so far no probs after 8,000 miles. it just gos to show that any car doesnt matter what make or model you can still get a bad one.
