Hmmmpphh now my car has broken down

So I plan everything. The Rx8 is coming Endof June, start of July ther latest on my order form from T W Whites in Webridge. This is back in early Feb though..
I agree to sell my Eunos (MX5) to my best man at the Start of June.

Then as I realise in mid-May that the RX-8 isn't coming until "later than planned", I buy a reliable Honda Accord to keep me going until the end of July date I was given.

Come the start of June, and the Eunos is going, so the Honda becomes the 30 mile a day commute car. Hmm, its going to have to last a little longer than the end of July, more like September.

Ok, now go forward until last week - End October, start of November for the RX-8, and the Accord, nerly 2 months in decides to have a wee bit of problems with the carburettor. No probs, call the AA. Sorted.

Today, this happens to my car. The AA come out, I think thats it tow it to a scrap yard, but no! The suspension arm is knackered. AA guy tried to fix it temporarily but it gets 100 yards each time before it all goes again. Need AA flat back van instead.
Local garage reckons it could be £100, maybe £500.
Its not worth doing for £500 as I paid less for the car!

Why? COS OF CRAP PLANNING ON MAZDAS BEHALF.

Sorry, bad mood day. Plus I cant get into work properly, so I'm on here instead.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrr
