Ha ha..the trick is, [as you get older] call out the AA, and when the Patrol arrives, tell them what is actually wrong...and lo, you happen to have a 'spare' in the boot....they are instructed to 'get you going again' if at all possible,only falling back on recovery as a last resort?You can change them by the side of the road or car park if you need to and happen to have spares in the boot. It takes about 30 - 40 minutes if you know what you're doing, so probably quicker than waiting for recovery if you need to, but it's not a nice job.
They will do the job for you [following your instructions, obviously?]....
QUite a 'cheap' labour charge??
[I have had a Volvo 740 fuel pump replaced, and a Felicia alternator replaced, all for the same membership fee! HAndy?]No, I don't think all other drivers are idiots......but some are determined to change my mind.......0 -
