My mates got the same laptop (Blue lid/black base).

His has been to and from PC World a good few times also, it's not been faulty from what he says, but its managed to fly across the road, fall down some steps, get stood on (three times) and consume 3 cups of sweet coffee in the 2 years he's owned it. All by accident of course.

If you've got it insured with the accidental damage policy then break it "by accident" and make them give you some vouchers back instead of them repairing it. Then you can buy a new one.

Probably as most companies who offer extended guarantees dont always use new parts.
Just replacing broken parts with shit second user parts.
