and I no fuck all - But have common fucking sense and no that headgaskets dont just go within 8k miles when there was enough water and oil. Doyle isnt exactly the person who "rags" the shit out of it either, I dont think hes gone over 60! So tbh I cnt see how its Doyles fault?

I doesnt matter whether he drove it 2 foot, or 300 miles. If the car had no or minimal water, and overheats, have a guess what is going to happen.
Also, how do you know it was driven for a mile and a half with minimal water? Did he check the water level was fine, drive for one and a half miles, to find the water had dissapeared in that time?
if i was Doyle, i would stop trying to point the finger and shift the blame, get the car fixed, and not be so fucking stupid in future.

Minimal as in there was water in the system and abit in the exspansion tank? I no this because he drove from his, To mine...I had a look around and saw that level of water. I then filled it up.
Doyle isnt or hasnt blamed anyone. Hes thick and more or less wants to no wats going on. And its getting done atm.

Was this before, or after the new radiator?
Evidently he is thick, yes.
In regards to shifting the blame, i was talking about comments like..

haha tell that to 3i_gaz
he was the one who did it last
and he didnt do it badly atall
also this has nout to do with how it was when jack sold it
the point is
he drove it with no water at silly temps
warped the head , gasket went

you are all pathetic..
I asked jack earier via text where is the receipt for the headgasket that was done recently, no reply
I cant find it in the documents he gave me
o well
problem is, why did the headagasket go? why was it overheating, no point just fitting a new headgasket, need to know why it has been overheating.

Will's taking some serious stick here - give the lad a break...
Bought a new car which has been giving him grief, and costing quite a bit to get running properly again by the sounds of things.
