Yep can agree there guy at work says to me come listen to my car its making a funny noise, so i go over lift the bonnet no water in the header tank but its got a good amount of oil on the dipstick so i start it and turn it off after a few seconds only to be asked why? Oil light didnt go out, he says dont worry it works ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He started the car reved the nuts off it and all the tappets were screaming told him to get it recovered home and the plank drove it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Needless to say he just kept driving it till it died! Some people just wont listen or learn
