Said I'd have a think about it. Picked up the car and told them I decided not to do the work.
Took it to my regular mechanic today. He passed the car. Gave the MOT. I asked did you look at the brake lines.
'Yep they are fine'
How much would it be to replace both?
3-400 Euros!

Aye and they were so focused on the 'brake lines' they missed a broken bulb.tungsten tossers wrote: ↑Tue May 27, 2025 7:53 pmFleecing cuntsChrisW wrote: ↑Tue May 27, 2025 4:45 pm Took the car in for the MOT yesterday.

I rang to ask wtf is going on.
Apparently they've put me a cheque in the post with a letter to explain it.
You can call me, you can email me, you can message me on the app. You can do something
I'm so not impressed
No cheque
No letter
No explanation
I'm expected to wait up to 14 business days for it to arrive
