Hopefully the shop and the owner come to some sort of agreement to sort it all out fairly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car got tuck in the same way with the ass in the airthe thing that really pissed me off, I was just getting work done for a roadworthy as I had just SOLD the f**cking car The owner felt really really bad about it, he was insuraed and got the car fixed witghin a week. Sale still went through too luckly I still use the mechanic, he has been in business for over 25 years and mistakes do happen Edited 12/03/07 09:27 PM by oldskool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
