Taxi Driver Online

I once bought a Citroen....

(well, it was a Fiat really, with a Citroen badge)

clutch warped
suspension strut top broke up
injector failed
wiring loom failed THREE times
engine mounting failed
gearbox mounting failed
wheel bearing failed

all between 15,000 miles and 99,999 miles - i chucked back at that, cos the warranty ran out...

the wheelbearing story was interesting

a THREE day job, but no hubs in the country, and they wont press a bearing out unless a spare hub is available cos the 50 tonne press can crack the hub leaving the vehicle on the ramps....

the strut top bearing was £27 RRP, but citroen had none, fiat did (same part) but it took 7 days to get from warrington to chasetown

my older fiat needed 2 at the same time my new van needed one, so fiat ordered a left hand and a right hand and fiat sent two left hand items...
