Badly maintained Diesels.
Did our usual 200mile round trip to Worcestershire on Sunday in the pi--ing rain, MGZTV6 ran beautifully, all systems, autobox,cruise controls, rainsensor wipers, aircon, seats lovely and comfortable, M4/M5 ok. So what was the problem-sorry to say diesels, rubbish maintenance diesels, penny pinching owners and drivers with dirty diesels- why don't they look after their vehicles? Now if your diesel is a nice clean one bully for you but if any of the above fits, well like the old saying "if the cap fits wear it" Chris S.

They didnt mostly have their wheels jammed inside their arches did they, it seems broken looking suspension, no paint and smoke is a 'thing'. Oh, and a roofrack with an old suitcase from a rummage sale.

Nope, it was normal diesel mixed with overconcentrated red diesel dye

So you drove 200 miles and it was ruined by other people driving cars? I'll give you a 1 for effort in terms of actually posting that but you'll have to buck your ideas up if you want to get past level 1 Internet Troll status |
