4 Breakdowns in one afternoon! Can anyone top that?

[gib6933]

I broke down four times this afternoon in the same car, every problem was unrelated! Plus one mental breakdown trying to get a split pin in a hole that was just taking the ps!

So to make me feel a little better, can anybody top that?

Ps Thank you to the lady that came out of that house and offered me a drink it was very kind of you! I'm guessing you are a Piston Header by the Mx5 in your garage

I cannot top this. It's taken me five years to have one breakdown.

one of my friends had 11 punctures in a day last summer in turkey....on a pushbike, but still.

I managed three in one day last year.....

I'm guessing it wasn't in the 650i?

No

The bmw would be easy I would just chuck the keys at the dealer

It was the 1916 ford. It was all bits that had just worn out.

All sorted now fingers crossed in a sort of heath robinson way, and new parts on the way / being made as we speak.

Sorry, i have nothing constructive or of value to offer to this thread. I can only imagine what you muttered after the second time...and then the third time...and then the fourth.

That's desperately unlucky.

The air was a little blue I must admit.

If I had had something to write on I would have put a for sale sign on it at the forth breakdown.

Youre kidding?

What makes you think a Scotsman would buy a car that old

What 40bhp from a 3 litre, it would be a marvel of modern engineering up there
