That's London for you, mate. Most garages up here will do it for nowt out of goodwill. I usually just slip the bloke a tenner and say 'get yerssen a drink'.
RE: That's London for you, mate. Well this is just a geezer with a lockup. He's authorised by Mazda mind, so he probably just adds on whatever he wants.</p> Next time, I'm driving it into the river.</p>
Refuse to pay call the bloke a thieving scummy barstard and just claim your car back. *I take no responsibility for any negative repercusions following this action
Well, its not so straight forward for me. It was my Dad's car and he passed awaya few years back- if I sold it with no brakes i'd have had to let it go for sod all.</p> But, nowits fixed up, it's getting sold in a few months time and no messing!</p>
Have you noticed how many garages, when you have taken the car in for a service always ask you to call for it at 5pm.
