I certainly would never buy another car from that trash quality brand again.

sugarwood,

The engineers of this 1973 'T' engine designed it to be redlined at 6250 rpm's.
The manufacturer was not at fault.

The owner of the car made a serious mistake in exceeding that limit.

He paid dearly for it.

In fact, he lost the car.
