Milltek'd 182
right, i know how intellectual you lot are so thought i'd ask a little question.
my sister has a VW polo, 1.2 sport (i think) the 3 cylinder one. and she was on the motorway when it 'blew up' oil pissing out everywhere all up the back of the car and over the engine bay. had to get it towed back and my step dad has a mate who used to work for VW and said dont touch it just take it there.
it looks bad, probably a cracked block?!
anyway, its 2003 and done 40,000ish miles. so just out of warranty really. always been serviced at VW and had it done at 38,000 miles i think so not long ago. where do we stand legally? i've heard things like 'not fit for purpose' on here and stuff and just wondered if anyone has any advice? think it needs a new engine so we are talking £££!!
cheers guys
