Thanks again to you all for your advice I feel a little bit better after my rant, but I would like to try and resolve some of the problems my trouble is I am a bit long in the tooth for crawling over the car does anyone know of a garage/mechanic who for a reasonable price might tackle some of my problems

Hi Mike I bought the car off Gumtree from a private owner in EastBourne so only have myself to blame. Thanks to the other contributors both positive and negative. I suppose I should realise that this is not a luxury car anymore just an old banger and as such I will stop cleaning it and having it services and drive it into the ground until it dies

I am a not so proud owner of a LS430 2003 I purchased the car 18 months ago mainly on the advise of you guys telling me that they are wonderful cars never break down and all the bells and whistles never stop working I was going to buy a Jaguar (wish I had now). Well the story so far the air conditioning has failed with a hole in one of the pipes, parking sensors failed, drivers seat broke ( had to have it repaired for the mot), rear offside suspension is lower than the rest of the car, steering wheel adjustment works intermittently, cruise control has failed. Anyone know of a good scrap yard or should I just list it on eBay for 99p
