My car is dying

March 2005. My wreck, ahem... my car already has problems getting “the sticker”, i.e. the sticker which signs it as being technically okay. A repair cost of €350 occurs.

August 2005. During our drive into our holidays, the back of my exhaust pipe rust through and broke off. €130 in botch.

September 2005. Can’t drive backwards, something is blocking. The brakes break. €319.50 make them new.

November 2005. Actually, can’t remember what happened. €220 at mate’s rates at Roli’s garage.

December 2005. Just a few days later I’m back to Roli. Exhaust pipe front, rust through, €143.

January 2006. Engine is dying off after some minutes of drive. Roli thinks to have found the failure at the fuel injection. €136.

February 2006. Engine still dying off, this time at the beginning of our drive into a holiday weekend. ÖAMTC tows us to Roli. Rent a car. After days Roli finally found out, car didn’t start anymore, starting module replaced, €292.

After one year, the hell of €1590.50 have been thrown out of the window. First steps towards selling the car are coming up.
