Well, i had the clutch replaced around £200 with labor and parts. Then i had the breaks done, £50 a shoe then labor. Then the exhaust £100 and labor on top...

So in my first year of owning the car, i spent nearly its value in parts and labor.

Im looking more towards the S-Type, its a nice engine 1.8 and is lower insurance plus road tax.

I might even look into leasing it, cheaper on the pennies and can get a new one 2 years down the line

Not as bad as how much I needed to pay out in a year to keep my Renault Clio roadworthy. In a year I owned my old Clio (sold for £950 - 300 quid less than what I bought it for), I had to shell out around £1000 to fix stuff which kept going wrong. [thumbdown]
