Well - decided to take the car to be MOTed yesterday. It's due in the end of May but I thought I'd get a head start.

 

I've been to this small garage twice before now for my Rover and he seemed ok.

 

Took the Z - for the first 5 minutes he proceded to ask me "why I had bought a piece of shit like that" and how shit he thought they were. I thought, thats rich coming from a Renault Espace driver.

 

Anyway, got my justice when he headed butted my front tyre after slipping on the tyre shine spray. I nearly pissed myself but thought better of it incase he failed me on something silly.

 

Anyway, it did fail on 2 things. 1 was a worn "Pre Load Rubber". Haven't checked to see where that is exactly but he said it wasn't a major job.

 

The other thing it failed on was.........the lights not having a decent enough beam - SUPRISE SUPRISE!

 

Bacofoil here I come!

 

P.S. Gave the front leaking bush a quick wipe - looks like it did the job.

He was jokin right? cos regardless of what you drive if anyone said that to a customer they better have fire insurance.

Nope - Those actual words came out of his mouth!

 

At first I thought "You cheeky bastard" and then I thought - "Looser"

 

He said that he didn't like working on them so he's probably tried to fix one before and it's beaten him.
