    Issue with the sunroof and the clutch pedal (squeaks like crazy).It's a common enough issue with both of them.

    They had my car for 2 weeks,they eventually fixed the sunroof and told me the clutch pedal had been as well.It hasn't.

    What happened the sunroof? You'd imagine there's not a lot to go wrong seeing as it doesn't open?

    :(

    I'm freezing. It's the only way to heat the house apart from a ****ty little gas fire in the sitting room. Poxy fire can't even heat the sitting room :(

    My place is like that. We're expecting the heating to break again any day now.

    There's a Skoda Estelle abandoned in the short term car park in Cork Airport.

    At least I'm pretty sure it is. I've been in the car park three times over the past year and it's been sitting in the same spot. Orange too. :D

    Anyone who has seen the Car Of The Year Ireland page on Facebook will agree with this:

    1457618_714729561889725_485111626_n.jpg

    This has gotten more votes than a Manta 400r and a 66 (or thereabouts) Mustang and that just makes me mad.

    Yeah, there are some genuinely nice motors too.

    98 Renault Twingo with a cbr 900 engine wins for me.

    Don't wait, deal with it now.

    I also have no heating, and it's horrid. And a monster job to fix.

    This is why when I move out I will be 100% be looking for somewhere with an open fire.
    If all else fails, throw a few logs on and gather round.
