we have an 05 plate ford ranger thunder that weve had from new, its nearly done 100,000 miles and has never had anything wrong with it, other than a bulb blow

it still looks like new aswell as we look after it

My bothers car's worth fooooook all but he's had it for 8 years now and likes it (no helping some people is there !!!!!!!! ) . The dizzy pack that's busted means the car can't work and nissan know this , they think that if they charge £500 for a £3 bit of plastic with wires inside that he's going to run from the parts deptment into the car showroom next door and buy a brand new £15,000 mini-cab , tossssssers
