I got my car back for another 12 months at least

It's a turd, but it's fast and handles ace so who cares


There's nothing like a couple weeks on the freezing cold bus to make you appreciate your car

It had a new exhaust system two months ago, that cat failed the mot, so they put a new one on under warranty, then that one failed too. So the garage were trying everything else thinking it couldn't possibly be the cat. Then when they were all out of ideas, they tried a pattern-part cat and it passed fine. The sports cats were the problem, they weren't helping the emissions at all
