2-"Motor Control System Failure" - faulty MAF sensor - covered under garuntee when i bought the car (happened a month after i bought it)
3-clutch release bearing (6 months ago mechanic friend fixed for me for free)
4-Timing/Cam belt broke - €2200 for Full Top End rebuild (my engine as a result is pretty much brand spanking new)
other than that, no problems! lol
But to be honest, I love her so much i'd go through it all again!

Well I would say the same... I had my car from new for 6 years now. b4 this car I bought a car had it 2 years until I was bored then changed it. .. still not bored of this one!
my first service after the 3 years warrenty cost me £3k as I needed a new stearing arm as well as many other parts.

car was gone for 2 weeks thats what hurt the most. then recently as she is getting old I have had to pay out on her aging ways. but b4 this I had old klancias so it aint like it was a shock!!!!!
