Head gasket eventually went but not before the driveshaft, clutch, gearbox etc. words cannot describe how **** they were.

please log in to view this image One of the car I used to own before.Chrysler Avenger I drove more than 20 times between London and Plymouth.
When I first passed my test my mum had a Chrysler Avenger. When my mum and dad went on holiday they said I could use it whilst they were away. They day before they went away for two weeks my mum shopped so my brother and sister and I would have food in for the two weeks they were away. Towards the end of the first week of what was a hot summer there was a terrible smell in the car. I could not find what it was, but could not get into the boot as I had no key. For the entire second week me and my mates drove around with all the windows open. When my mum came home I got the boot key off her and found a bag of mince in the boot which was rotten having been in there for two weeks in hot weather. Put me off the Avenger, which was a crap car anyway.
