a big sorry to all who attended the sjc meet for not showing up but last sat morning i was up nice and early preening the car for the meet and as i drove back BANG/help my torqe converter went on me again. now for a car to go through 1 new gearbox and 2 converters in one year and only 8000 miles there has to be something far wrong with it. after a couple of phone calls i have now found out from phoenix mitsi(paisley)that the car has also had two BRAND NEW gearboxes fitted before i even got in the car.
the place that have been taking the car to be fixed (mackie autos)assure me that ther is a major fault with the car so sorry lads no more galant time for me.
ritch im sorry i never got back to u on sat but i was running around lke a headless chicken and i completley forgot, so once again lads sorry,but looks like u all had a good time anyway just wish i could have been there.

No probs Craig. Sorry to hear about the probglems you're having with your car. Definitely something suspect if it's chewing up greaboxes - do you not have a case for returning the car to Phoenix under the Sale of Goods Act?

the car came from phoenix from new, i got it 4yrs down the line but ive got consumer direct to handle a case for me there looking into it just now and will bring a case forward for me against the company i got the car from (keeping fingers crossed)in the meantime im driving a little zr at the mo(must admit im lovin the back road experience driving this car it sticks to the road like glue)
