    I remember when I took my car in the garage for new front brakes. I lacked the physical strength but not the know how.

    I came back and they told me they had changed the back brakes without my permission because they were worn. This was a surprise to me as I had done it myself 9 months previously. I demanded they put mine back on as they hadn't consulted me, they claimed to have thrown them out so I had them free. I looked when I got home and they didn't look brand new

    Cheeky f$%kers. I always make sure I know exactly what I need when I go to a garage and query them on everything.


    It works both ways, though.


    I always josh along with my local garage boys and get a cheap MOT & service.


    I always send them a couple of bottles of wine as well for good service.

    Oh so pleased you are here. I thought you'd fallen down the plug hole :rotfl:

    That will never happen. :rotfl:

    Talking about baths though, must warn Anon not to rinse out the dregs of Original Source Tea Tree and mint shower gel bottles in the bath while you are in it. :o All of sudden the water does not feel quite as hot. :o:o:o

    Then £38-odd is fair, not London prices.


    What does BMW London charge per hour? - I wonder
