Advice.. need answers. Worried...

So i got my Yaris (2009 Yaris T1) and its hasnt been Plauged with Problems.. but it hasnt been "trouble free" either.

I replaced the Clutch 3 months ago cause it was as solid as a rock. Thought the Clutch needed Replacing after I burnt it (at the time I was a student driver and knew nothing about clutches)

Now at 40 000kms.. The CV joints are gone! Really at 40 000kms!

The Car was Purchased for me by My dad and I have loved it. And Looked after it. Been driving it hard but only once it was warm. Confessing I am a "fast Speedy Gonzalis" and as a result my tyres didnt last very long due to driving so fast. Recently replaced the Tyres so its good now but the CV Joints are gone. (btw Ive racked up 10000kms since November)

My Dad thinks I bought a Lemon and He's considering Selling it
But I love my car and he doesnt think its a good car

Is this Normal, and Is there anything I can do? (I know improve my Driving Habits)

I dont want him selling it
