Sold as seen if its a private purchase, should have got it checked over before you bought it.

In all fairness i fail to see why it's kieran's fault if he didn't realise.
If he knew then yes he's literally satan,
however the hole must have started as a crack, the crack might have wept a little whilst he owned the car and he might not have seen the crack. Then that chunk may have fallen out whilst you were driving, taking the rest of the oil with it.
Just playing devil's advocate before we all go on a witch hunt.
The best thing would be for keiran to show his face and tell us just how big that 3.1 litre puddle was.

I've been thinking that. We stuck to a happy 80-90 on the way home. So just over 3k rpm all the way home. As soon as we got back it was washed and put into storage. Haven't even had a chance to thrash the damn thing. Probably for the best.

Could hardly have had it checked it over in the car park where i picked it up. Would have a been a jack the car up, and take lower engine covers off. I don't know of anyone who does that lol
that's awful. how's that failed? presumably (as it's still 'OK' internally), it's been smacked?
fail to see how anyone who owned that could not have realised the casing was that badly damaged before deciding to sell. it's described as an 'oil leak' but, come on, it must have dumped it all after whatever went wrong
is there oil spattered under the car? if not, that'd suggest that it did dump it all in one go
would be properly p*ssed myself
ed. scrub that; missed the last photo; does obv. look like internal failure (d'uh/me). seems surprising it still worked

80-90 is touching and over 4k mate
Unless it's got some kind of strange ratios in the box (or is vastly different to my ph2)
Least it didn't make anything else go bang!

I would never buy a car without having a good luck under neath. At least checking for broken CV boots etc. Praps removing the lower gearbox cover is a little excessive, but then I would want to know where it was leaking from.
needless to say, you've been had. hope you get some doller back mate.
