    Would really appreciate advice.have now checked the mileage on the car.it failed its MOT and did roughly a 4 mile journey back to the drive (the garage is yeards around the corner).The difference between the mileage on the MOT and the car now is 38 miles. The garage therefore did 32 miles in the car......Still haven't had someone look at it-I dread to think what they've done to it.

    Anyone any advice-there definitely seems to be somethiong wrong with the clutch-it was fine when it went into the MOT apart from the emissions and the tyres

    Have checked clutch-seems ok-think this was just my hysteria!!! But the car did overheat. The garage had checked it several times for the fault before fitting a new radiator in June and it hasn't overheated since-until they got it again. They have overfilled the reservoir.

    But what did they do running a car with no MOT for 34 odd miles ? have now written a note asking why fel additive/anti-freeze in car (it hasn't been that cold round here)/why the mileage/for a copy of the converter receipt. Any one any idea what they might have done to the car ? It isn't just the time and money-I am very fond of that car !
