Unlucky or what?

Am I the most unluckiest cobra owner in the UK?



It all started in April when I had the car SVA’d, the Speedo stopped working on the way, since then I’ve: -

Put a hole in the sump

Had the exhausts come apart

Had a coil break down

Had the exhausts come apart again

Put a hole in a piston

Broke the gearbox mountings

Bent some valves

Cracked my windscreen

Had the ignition system fail

Had the exhausts come apart again

Finally on Thursday my clutch cable snapped

I think that’s the whole list although I may have forgotten something

Is there anyone unluckier?
