Had one of those rather "resigned to the inevitable" conversations with Norton Way.

No, Stapletons 've not fitted the wrong tyres (apparently NWHL read them the riot act over that one, because THEY were fed up of being fobbed off too!), they've managed to scratch one of the rims.

NWHL have taken the car into the bodyshop as an emergency overnight booking, in order to repair it.

I get the feeling the guys at NWHL genuinely DO give a flying fcuk, and are as much a victim of the wankerdomness of the retards in the rest of the industry as the rest of us.

Stapletons shall hereinafter be referred to as Simpletons by fiat of Nick Graves.

Oh, if anyone sees a tyre fitter tonight, please run them over/twat them with a wheelbrace/rub their face along a brick wall, as appropriate. It might wake their fcuking ideas up a bit.

 

Nick,

I`d ask for a new wheel.. cos you`ll know and see where its been fixed/ Repaired..

Just had my rears replaced by Saxon Gate Tyres in Biggleswade, guy on the counter was a bit of an arse, but i stressed that the wheels were spotless as i`d jus cleaned it.

Fitted did a spot on job no markings at all, checked this before i paided, and to add these were the cheapest i S02`s i could find.

always check out your car before you pay for any work carried out. I had one of my tints scratched on my lude by Priory Honda in bedford and the workshop guy didnt even quible it, jus said to bring it in at my convenience and they would sort it out..

Hope all works out mate

Gavin

 

 

You'll have to join the queue

If they can't do the job properly, why don't they just say so and not attempt it

I blame Tom Farmer - it was his idea to give "jobs" to neds in the first place.

 

Stand your ground Nick.
When you dropped off the car it had original undamaged never repaired wheels on the car and you expect exactly what you left to be returned to you. Nothing more and nothing less.

I'm fed up with this

 

It happens way too often and we all end up paying for it one way or another.

Hope you get it sorted soon Nick.

 

, I really like having NWHL as my local dealer.

 

I assume that it will be filled and blown over, like ones on the forecourt, so it should be "as new."

Well, it had better be.

I did take the precaution of photographing the wheels prior to taking the car in.

Euan, there IS no excuse. Masking kits are sold, in order to protect wheelrims from the wheel on the machine. These people are just too fcuking idle to do the job properly.

 

inevitably it costs me
