Re: Should I get rid of it?
Another problem with my car...
Temperature gauge flashing red light, topped up coolant, 2 weeks later light comes on again..
Turned out to be a coolant leak and water pump needs replacing.
Another £350 on this piece of shit.

Re: Should I get rid of it?
I was genuinely thinking that. Car's cursed.
More bad luck today.. went out for a quick drive to take some photos to post it online here.
Scrapped another wheel to shreds and their Matt Bronze so impossible to colour match

Really enjoying the car at the moment, will post some pics of it in a bit to show what the "investment" paid for!!

I bought a VW Scirocco 59 Reg 160bhp in November 2016 after writing off my 122bhp. I then lost my license, got it back 6 months later. Within 2 weeks of driving it and 1 day after putting a £1.5K sound system in it, engine dies, turned out that cylinder 3 piston cracked and low compression. Take it ...
