Update: Got towed to garage, there is no pressure on cylinders 2 and 3, they said it could be a gasket, but it also could have blown the head (or something like that)

yeah it is a bit extreme, but i need something reliable, I have had no end of problems in the past. I got this from a known dealer with a years warranty, it's a 2004 reg 1.6 twinport, has done 30k miles, and it is in mint condition, I spent ages looking and couldn't find so much as a single hairline scratch, the interior is amazing too, I think it could be passed off as a month old, and only cost me £6,500... and it is a absolute dream to drive, I was eager to sign something after the test drive. I am well chuffed with myself, thats one hell of a car for someone who has only just turned 19!
