That's so poor. I'm speechless! Wouldn't even know where to start.

Thanks Adrian, still waiting on my card company to do the chargeback. Then i have someone set up to remove that mess and do it properly.
Cheers,
Dave

Dear forum members,

thank You very much for Your kind words and ongoing support,
I can say the car ist back on the road, with new mot (front brake discs and rear shocks are new).
Show room condition is out of reach, but I am very glad to keep such a nice car as daily driver!

Best regards,
Black Sterling
That's a good news

Is that the same garage that actually did the MOT, Dave? That's not good at all if so. You could also consider reporting them to the DVSA if necessary
It is Adrian - i don't want to threadjack so i'll only show 4 of the pics to give an idea :

The same person originally tested it, failed it, "repaired" it then passed it and then wouldn't let me collect for nearly 6 months and then charged me more than originally quoted! :shock:

That's the short version, it's a bit more in-depth but not happy at all about it! :evil:
What they have done is incredible !!!

We keep our fingers crossed so you can get your money back and get the job done right

I am frequently amazed by the ability of garages and other professionals to do simple things badly
