Unhappy What Have You Broken ????

Just reading through the pages of those who have been blessed with the Destruction BUG : I thought it mite make for some good reading to see what we have all had explode on our chariots over the years and why it EXPLODED in the first place so coming from a long line of never die wondering family heres my list so far
in the begining XW panel Van owned for 12 years 3 motors the 1st died a natural death the 2nd threw a rod at 5 days old ..no warranty on worked motors : the 3rd .. meh big right boot 3 diffs 4 gear boxes .
then there was a lot of $100 rockets along the way with 3 Minis that all seemed to have clutch issues :
a XT fairmont I couldn"t kill it just rusted away along with a XB went the same way a 351 XY ute 2 gear boxes there in 12 months (stupid autos) a ED 5 speed Futura more clutch issues (Mmm begining to see a pattern here ) a XE Spak just to boring to my first brand new car (and last) AU11 XR8 ... yeah all rite clutch issues again gear box (heh Warranty that one ) still waiting for the next failure there .. come to think of it the only ones that didn"t cost me money or blood sweat & tears were the 3 dead stockers XT,XB,XE maybe next time I mite leave them alone .... NOT : Just carn"t wait to see what I can fire out from under the Cortina when it hits the track :togo: Cheers
