Anyone else ever have this?

So back in t'day we had a P reg 2.0 Vectra which was fantastically average, apart from a small flaw. The cam sensors kept dying and knocking the engine out! Did anyone else ever know of anything like this or was it just us? Seems an odd failure to have 3 times...

[Flintstone]

No but in the 60's I once bought a sherbet dib-dab and the lolly was missing from the packet!

Anyone else?

[Garlick]

I've had similar with a choc dip - no choc, just biscuits

[arfur daley]

i once bought a box of poppets and it only had 1 inside the box. i sent it to the manufactuers who sent me a small box full of packets of poppets.

Surely that's a crime against humanity?

ETA: Back in t'day for me could be last week, my memory is rather shor...thingy.

I once had a toilet roll with no cardboard centre.

I mean, what were they playing at...?

Try changing the crank sensor aswell, very common on the 2.0 Ecotec's.

Well it appears to be no longer running (we sold it eventually after getting fed up of it) so I'd assume the next owner ended up throwing it off a cliff

I bought a bag of Walkers crisps that was not even half full

I have had a solid (milk, sadly) chocolate "Kit Kat"...

Me too! It made my day, I felt very special and played the lottery online. Sadly it wasn't a draw night and so my super luck had expired by the time the actual draw took place.

I also like 'super crisps' or 'super chips'. A normal packet of crisps (or chips) and one stupidly big one inside

[Garlick]

Had a burnt flake in my crunchy nut cornflakes once, quite bitter.

Anyone else?

This thread should be in the food section now.

[PabloTeK]

A thread that's gone from a beigey-brown Vauxhall Vectra to food, the second one being oh so more appealing

[Waugh-terfall]

Friend of mine had this monster in his Corn Flakes..:

as well as some strange confectionary..:

[Mark-C]

This may turn the whole thing on it's head but I had a boneless\skinless salmon fillet from Waitrose today that had a bone in it ....

Next?
