the garage have broke my hazard switch (4 times its been broke now!) my grille and the braket have holds the headlamp onto the slam panel!

to top this off, the wing doesnt fit, its a moulding from Discount Body Panels, dont buy stuff from these, nothing ever fits, buy genuine parts from a scrapyard, at least then, you will know that they will fit!

but, not only this, but they havnt fitted the bumper properly, they havent used the correct screws and bolts, even though i gave them everything they would need to do the job properly!

also, i dont think the respray is the correct colour, it should be glacier white, but its too bright and shiny to be that!

oh, and the corner of the car is still all bent and the headlamp doesnt fit properly as it should!

apart from that, its all good, even though it cost ?350 for labour and ?100 on parts, of which im now going to have to fork out another ?25 on a new headlamp and grille!

and get the hazard switch fixed again........

but to top this off, im also going to get the tracking and camber realigned, back box fixed, alternator tightening and a new battery!

its all money! :?

You check guys out in your mirrors?

What were you doing to miss them when they were infront of you?

me thinks the fluid level test shoud be extended to changing a wheel and other much harder tasks to put women off driving.

well, considering that i cant see guys very well when they are IN FRONT of me :?

and, it might strike you as weird, but i can actually change a wheel no probs. it wont put me off driving at all having hard tasks on tests, cause i know i can do them.
