A series of claim-free years that began came to an abrupt end on Tuesday

On the Friday before Christmas it happened finally. A series of claim-free years that began came to an abrupt end on Tuesday, September 14th, 1982. I stopped at a traffic light and the driver behind me was that watching too late. There I was. My car had drilled onto the hitch of the vehicle ahead. I had to somehow have a claim in the car, but where? Jeminee which a request all. For the cause was a unique event. It was the first time he caused an injury.

While enjoying a cup of coffee, we have jointly completed the forms. If it should happen to me anyway rather than in this relaxed atmosphere.

After some inquiry put down my car at my dealership. Which killed all his quick judgment. Total loss. I wistfully looked at my (our) Mitsubischi Galant 2.0 GLXi 1998 with 109,000 km on the clock. THE car I had for years meegedacht to advance. He complied exquisite as tractor and trailer for those few kilometers I on an annual basis row was a wonderful car. And now.

Then the Internet turns out to be a great invention. IF you have set once the search framework is almost entirely car-Netherlands occasions just in your living room. Something still can not with my father. According to him, I have old-fashioned ride off the garages because imagine that in the village / town ff further yet to find a better / cheaper car. My wife told me just go look. I explained to her that it does not work. Therefore, the choice is huge. So looking frames. My wife would have preferred a car with a slightly higher sales than the last and slightly smaller. There were, of course, finances. Another car was obviously not on our list.

At the moment I have two issues that in my view are covered by the warranty. When accelerating in 2nd gear around 2000 rpm keeps the engine in FF. He does only go quietly. I kick the gas in the engine pulls usual. Further, the clutch pedal very squeeky. Here, the garage has been looked at during the delivery turn it creaks back now.

problem regarding the contents have not yet been reported. I first want to see if it is not on my driving.

Crunch clutch is made. There was a lot of strength to kick down the clutch pedal is restored.

Cracking the 5th door is back with a vengeance. I must say that again at the next visit.

To notify the rest nothing new.

Update (182.500 km)

The first year is over. The car already had its turn. Costs 407 euro fell against me that while there was nothing to worry about.

I have a unproblematically year behind. Well, I agree with only forum writers agree that the car can not really inspire me. It was a sense of purchase but no emotional buy. Driving I do not therefore spectaculeer.

However, driving with a caravan behind the car is a delight. You really do not notice that 1300 kilograms hanging from the trailer hitch.

Consumption is disappointing. The meter in the car has such a large deviation that I was not even looking at. Over the full year, the consumption average of 1: 13km. If I am driving with the caravan from my calculation gives the consumption is 1: 13,9km. In addition, I must point out that my traffic was about 70%. The remainder is almost motorway.

Update (299 940 km)

Until last year I drove smoothly around the verso. However, from the summer 2014, the Japanese leave anyway drop stitches. I have many problems with the EGR valve. The engine is regularly called emergency operation. At present I have just a repair of almost 1,000 euros behind. According to the garage is also worn the starter. That may sometimes nearly 300,000 km on the clock. However, given the problems with the EGR valve, I'm not going to play on the 300,000 km. That is, the reverse and I will say goodbye. Hopefully the next week and so far there is a 'new' verso dated 2011 in the driveway
