Disaster

Hi guys

I killed my car lol

Been having probs with the oil in my car, my mate said it was due to the fact i only do short runs (5 mins to work and back) so the engine isn't getting up to temp enough and i'm getting condesation in the oil, so we serviced the car today
There has been a slight tapping coming from the engine which we put down to it not being lubricated properly. anyway new oil in new filters in(O,F,A) took her for a spin, and my sump tank sprang a leeak, i didn't hit anything but i now have a hole in the sump so now my cars dead . to top things off i had to join the AA at the roadside - £150 :( oh and it took 3 hrs for them to get to me.
