Monday I will have a meeting with the garage-owner. You have given me some very good reasons to argue their conclusion, but I wish I had someone by my side in that office.
As I see it, they will have to fix the car - probably by replacing the motor – or compensate by offering me the price of the car + the 7000 NOK I payed to let them destroy it...
An alternative is that I keep the rental car I have from them, but I cant stand the idea of driving an Open Corsa for months...
Thaks again, you wonderful and dedicated Roverlovers!
sincerely,
May

Wish you the best of luck on Monday, but also in getting hold of Einar who most on here recognise to be a very knowledgeable engineer capable of not just maintaining the Rover 75s but originator of some very clever homemade solutions eg. draining all the auto fluid in one operation.
As previous poster, you don't have to accept anything (unless it's very much in your favour), document and photograph, use your Norwegian AA, consumer advisory service etc.
