This is the worst part of the story. I'm very sorry to hear of your suffering, but I am glad you survived.

I think its more the open deck design of the block which allows the head to warp , no gasket can cope with the amount of movement reported, some say you can pass a penny through the gaps

I'm very keen that Ford do fix the issue though

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nan3LURIq3k&t=...

So don't modify your car. Issue fixed.

Modify it and Ford are entitled to turn their back. Why is that unfair?

Where did I say its unfair ?

Its not Fords fault its not covered under warranty but its a design fault that will possibly cause ongoing issues inside and outside of warranty. OP could well pay to have the engine repaired only for it to fail again immediately

I dont have one to modify, I dont own a FRS

Not having a pop at you, it's in the video you posted. The guy in it reckons Ford should have validated the product for use beyond its design limits. He then recommends owners make their mods reversible so that they can be removed if anything happens so you can return the car and make a, fraudulent, warranty claim, which is nice.

If standard cars are failing and Ford are repairing them under warranty then a) Ford are doing what they should and b) They'll be rectifying the engineering issue.

To be fair, that Ford RS he was sold is a right shed. It certainly isn't going far

Lee sells RS sea shells on the Lee-on-sea shaw...

Broken Lee's RS sea shells, make sure Warren T insures

Can anyone recommend if I'm able to force teh original bloke to take the car back if it breaks down so quick

Yes, you can force him. Kidnapping his children is a good place to start. Try that. He's bound to give you your money back. Unless he doesn't like his kids then you're stuck with them.

Can i just say i don't think Crackies post ^^^ got the Lolz it deserved. Particularly the bit about ending up with the original sellers kids! actually LOLling here ;-)

Yes, side splitting hilarity and rapier wit

[helix402]

indapendentlee? You think he can dominate a landing?

You wait till his brother Bruce turns up.





(Which he won’t because he’s dead).

More pertinent, don't people feel that the lamp post is a bit too close to the bus shelter so that the light does not get to flood in? This means it must get very dark at night when you are waiting for the bus.

I don't know, this could be dangerous at night when you are on your own.

Thread of the year,in the first week in fact the first 2 days.

Who'd have thunk it ?.....

When Lee gets the kids back.

My guess is Lee will be selling the kids to fund his half of the repair bill.

Maybe half of them.

Hope he does not have 3 kids.

Ok I'm Confused

Did Lee kidnap Scotty's kids ?

Or is Lee selling her own kids ?

Or is Lee up the duff with Jeff's kid and selling that one out of shame ?

I'm proper confused too now, I thought Lee was a bloke. Maybe he once was but he isn't now. Hence being currently up the duff. This is all moving far too quickly for me, especially the bit with the unexpected sex change

Your point would be valid if this was not a specifically designed Modified RS bus shelter. The purpose of this structure is to shelter the occupant from the spotlight following a failed warranty claim and subsequent posting on PH,

Simply Simply Epic.

He will turn up in a digger as Bruce Lee drives a JCB

It’s true! You learn something new every day:

[Philemon]

Is Indapendentlee related to Iain Lee?

Is he a friend of Yasser and can he do a Pradeep?
