    Can I big up a little local garage?

    I used to have a 51 plate Audi, which was my pride and joy but it started to die a slow and protracted death, however the lovely guys at CG Cars kept it on the road as long as possible for me, at very little cost! Even once resucing my car off my drive, taking it to their garage, fixing and returning it for the total sum of £100!!
    :rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:

    They must have been crazy. £25 is nothing.
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..
