Wow, that right there says you're lacking in the intelligence department. What sort of moron speeds up when being overtaken?

VY Series 2 25th Anniversary in Phantom Mica
Beacuse they want you to get sick of complaining and just go away and/or sell the car so they don't have to pay up and fix it. Drag them kicking and screaming in the end you will win. Simple fix is get it emmission tested and if it's burning oil it may well fail it's exhaust emmission test hence un roadworthy hence the engine needs to be fixed by them. This is exactly what a friend did with a VR oil burner and he got the engine rebuilt at no cost.

OK so I have now done 1200k's with the full synth Castrol edge 5W30, no drop in oil levels, Hmmm, still early days, but I am hoping it will be all good.
