my Transmission has proved unreliable.
my release bearing went, then both front wheel bearings, then the viscous couplink, then the front diff, then the prop donuts so it judders like a fooker above 112ish mph. then the CV boots perished and i didnt realise so i recked my driveshafts.
i then decided to strip the whole car down and rebuild it, and so to speak it has been reliable 15000 miles later.
but its a very good example of buy a badly maintained one and itl just be a sack of shit, buy one that has had the work done and has been really looked after itl be brilliant.
i really rag the fillings out of mine most days, and its reliable.
