Hi again guys, hope you're all well.
Made a post a bit ago, saying how my car needed 500 of repairs when the car itself was worth 1000. Didn't know what to do, long story short I struggled to get the money but somehow got it repaired. Since then I sold it, bought a cheap van and then sold that (after it getting broke in to and making a 100 pounds loss). Then I've had an 07 Astra for a few weeks, which is now in central Leeds somewhere, as I had to leave it because it was smoking from some part of radiator system. Not got it looked at yet but people seem to be saying head gasket from what i've described.
I'm obviously going to have it looked at before I make a decision but my questions are, should I go back to the dealer and complain?
And, these car repairs are just getting ridiculous for me, I'm only going to do WFP tops so I could probably even get away with a small car, so if I decide to get rid of the car, would you guys advise getting a 0-1000 £ car or getting something new on finance? Is there anything I should know about different car makes because I just seem hopeless at cars or maybe just unlucky.
Looks like i'm walking with ladders on my shoulder for a few weeks.
I know this isn't a car forum but I also know 95% of you will be more experienced than me and I don't really have anyone to go to around me, thanks again ?
