This business with the car needs to be taken further. They’ve left you with a dangerous car, who knows what could’ve happened. Absolutely dire 🤬I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4

Eeek that's worrying Beanie, glad you are ok. Surely that's a lot of issues for something that must have been done last year and can't rack up mileage in lockdown? I hope something can be sorted soon - and is something you feel properly safe in.

It’s horrendous after all the work you had done on the same car failrly recently - you were without a car for a good while then too. They need taking off the motability scheme if they leave people needing transport in such dire straits 😡😡
Dont think about what might have happened - think how it didn’t and you are safe 👍January spends - £587.584 -
