Title: Off to the car park in the sky...
Post by: baz1701 on 28 February 2010, 10:44:24
Head gasket has gone and completely ruined the engine :(

So the Miggy is off to the big car park in the sky.

Car has now gone to the scrappy, was given 120 quid for it. It was 120k on the clock and the head gasket abruptly let go, let loads of water and oil into the engine and that was that :( Could not afford to get repaired.

It would only cost £150 to DIY to fix it  :(
