My wife bought a VS Acclaim - ex Comm Car - with about 30,000km on the odo. We owned it for about 5years, did another 140,000km and the only thing that ever went wrong was the battery died. It was regularily used to tow a double horse float (one horse), and never had any problems with oil leaks, engine noises, trans failures, etc .. all the horror stories mentioned above. I suppose we were just lucky?
BTW: My wife picked this car 'cos "she liked it" .. nothing more technical than that .. and it was a great car. All the cars I've studied, poked, and checked have always had something major go wrong. Maybe I just need to get my wife to point the finger at a car and we buy that? Rod. |
