Oh and I'd just finished a service which cost me around £200 in parts and fluids, I taxed it last week, and it had a full tank of fuel 2 days ago and has done 14 miles since!  :angry:

Sorry to hear this, and by a really strange co-incidence my Corrado was also written off by a Range Rover about 6 weeks ago.

Getting rarer by the day. Loads being broken at the moment too, real shame.

Have read your progress on this car with interest. So gutty for this to have happened just as you were getting it reliable and excorcising some of the demons. Looks like they had the last laugh though...

Glad you are OK. And good luck for a better car next time. (Be hard to find one as good looking though).

Glad you and the missus are ok and the rest of those involved are too, hope the insurance claim isn't too much of a hassle being a multi-car backend shunt. The car behind you must have been pretty forking close to do that much damage  :undecided: Forking 4x4 drivers, hey? a friends Fiesta was written off 2 weeks ago by a Mitsubishi at a round about. Good luck finding another car you want :afro:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
