« on: 21 January 2007, 22:40:35 »

WHY OH WHY!!! i've had my 3.0elite for 4 years and it seams that it's been in the garage being repaired more than on the road.
i love the car, spend endless amounts of money on it.
so why can't i get it to be trouble free atleast for a few months.
i'm at the end of my tether, just drove to cardiff and back today and all of a sunden i got heavy vibrantion from the wheels on the way home . now it's becoming silly were do you draw the line and cut your losses.
i love it , but i haven't got endless pockets?
