PD engines are good for 200k plus miles with average neglect. A good shout for low earners needing reliable commutage.

He is apparently bank rolling the replacement car as Ghosty is out of money after the Honda blowing up.
WHS.

That's how I ended up with my mk7 Cvic after the Doloshite shat it's clutch hydraulics and starter motor on the same day. I was living about 20 miles from my parent's place at the time and asked if I could borrow their garage and get a lift to work for a couple of days until a new starter/clutch cylinder arrived.

24 hours later Dad dragged me out to a dealership a few miles away, pointed at a 2005 Civic and said "that's yours, don't break this one". I then proceeded to break it repeatedly, it still holds the record as being the car I've spend the most money maintaining (until I pay for the Doloshite's new engine)...

I've based 35 years of motoring on a core of £1500 German motors. Doing so has enabled me to waste most of the rest of my money on dissolving British tin.

No link because the picture is purloined and it's been listed by the super-scammer twat.
