Faults:

Head gasket blew at 102,000 km on the freeway.

Constantly losing water.

Replaced water pump.

Head gasket blew again.

Exhaust replaced.

Still replacing water even though it went in overnight for checks and was told nothing wrong - next day had to put another bottle of water in it!

Had to drop $400 to buyer as there was a juddering noise that needed attention.

General Comments:

From the time we bought the car to the time we sold it, we spent approximately $1200.00 on it in 10 months. Was frightened to use it in case we broke down again with 2 kids in the car.

When it was working OK, it was a nice drive. Good looking AWD and very very economical too.
