It's just not fit for purpose, simple as that. I am sat on the fence at the moment as to whether I think it's legal or not. Can't blame people for trying to save money these days, when faced with an expensive repair.

I have a 2011 A3 that comes in every other month for Regen, this cars like new and don't think it's reached 8000 mile yet. Yes it's a shopping trolley, and as the owner tells me she is too scared to drive it on the motorway.
