if you not clued up on repairing yourself you need to think the cost of having exhaust and bumper fixed and long as you haven't done further damage to the car otherwise your throwing money into a car that should be scrapped if it was me i buy it back and fix myself but exhaust are cheap to get fixed anyway but if you ask a garage to fix bumper they might take the mick and charge you stupid money so you really need to have a good think that is it best to take money and buy another up to you really

Actually that's incorrect they do fail I've had headlight aim fail and sorted and I've had ball joint and other parts fail and showed mot fail But if you think garage are doing a fast one I either goto the garage and check myself or ask to see the old parts If a garage say it failed you end up asking how much to fix then they fix and do new mot if you can afford or not worth it

Caught doing 94 in a 70 m6 toll
ukshane4life replied to Silly boy's topic in Speeding and Motoring Offences
ive heard this many times learnt my lesson only lesson you learnt is not to speed at m6 toll -
well if the pads where near limit they should of stated that the pads on the limit but if the pads where looking below the limit they should of failed the mot so it seems the mechanics are clueless that you took it to shoes would be a lie because they don't take the wheels or drums off to check life span on shoes and shoes do last alot of mileage my car as 100k on a picanto and still dont need replacing wont suprise me if the garage didn't even change the rear shoes and if i was you dont take it to the garage you used from now on take elsewhere also if i was you leave a bad review on google maps of the garage and did you check the reviews before taking it to that garage

Vista motor group now trading again new names
ukshane4life replied to Imran h's topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers
cant you do a check where the company address is this is problem with the uk many garages are doing company name changes like the garage in london ripping people off that was on watchdog changed over 5times there need to be a law if you get caught ripping people off and close business you cant open another -
thats the problem with crashed cars they done proper or they done by a diy person just to make money and thats what happened to you you should of asked who did the repair or proof it was done by a professional well known garage thing is i think you might after take them court because theres more and more traders that fobbing people off and end up in court
