Default Ergghhhh

Took my car into the garage this morning as the alignment was out at 3pm.

Told me it'd be done by 5.30pm and they'd ring me.

Nothing by 5.20pm.

Got put on hold and on hold.

Turns out the mechanic took it out to test and has binned it in a dyke (I said to him if you take it out be careful as its not like any normal car)

Car is written off.

Garage have said they'll 'sort it'

Waiting to see what they have to say tomorrow morning.

Regardless, I'm gutted. I spent 2 months finding and picking my baby. I can just see now he though 'Feck me this is quick, didn't know they were this good'.

ARGHHHH

I feel your pain, but try and post a more descriptive thread title.

I'll fix it for you. Sorry for your loss.

No problem. It's hard to find a shop / techs that you trust.

I wouldn't trust a alignment shop with employees who can't drive a car. I hope you take them to the bank.
