What things have gone wrong with the car?

Cooling fan.

Cam followers.

Synchromesh in third.

Burns oil.

Tracking.

Worn out tyres.

CV boot fell off.

Sounds like a bag of nails.

My mates have better cars.

It's slow.

Noisy.

Oh, and the exhaust fell off.

General comments?

If you buy a car for £800, don't expect miracles!!!!!

You got stung big time, mine runs like a dream and it only cost me £350!

I got 120 mph out of it uphill on the M4 the other day. I was taking on Beemers, Mercs, Toyotas, the lot. I'm a fuel injected suicide machine!

Ever seen Mad Max?

I would tend to believe you or your friends should learn more about automobiles. My 87 Jetta GLI is worth $42,350 and runs 6.523 seconds in the quarter mile, at 154 MPH. They can be truly unbelievable machines when maintained, built, and tuned properly.
