    Hi, i am just after some advice really, my local garage has been conning me for years and I have now had enough. every year they charge me £400+ for my mot as they say it always needs the seat belt mounts welding, im just wondering how long this should last for. my mot is due next month and im dreading it.
    any advice would be appreciated.

    Just buy a different, ie newer car, and frequent a better garage.

    If my gargae conned me once they would regret it, ;)

    In todays climate, any car that needs any welding, please exclude classics and stuff, is a dead loss. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

    2) A Ford Ka
    3) A Nissan Almera or Micra
    4) Any merc

    All thos seem to rust like water is going out of fashion.
