My girl has done me so well in the time I have had her, which is why it is sad that I have been informed the head gasket is on the way out.
Personally I had no issues, however I have always driven her carefully and local. When a friend drove the car, he complained about overheating and coolant fizzing out of the cap (I have no idea how he was driving it). Then looking into it, I was told it is likely the headgasket is going due to the colour of the coolant.
It is such a shame as, for the age, the car is in amazing condition and besides this all is well! She even received a full service just a month ago.
58,000 miles, MOT until Feb 2020, and full stamped service history. Still starts every time, no smoke, and drives great for short journeys.
Priced at £350, to be collected from South Croydon. I just want to see her go to a good home, and not be crushed!
Thanks.
