Bearing in mind the full service is normally £100 but this needs the HT leads and front wipers.

Also has a stamp in the book.  :wink:

Well it went well. All the filters, wipers, HT leads etc and also sealed an exhaust leak.

His bill was 100 quid which he was over the moon with and gave me a 20 quid drink as I cleaned the car. I got 60 profit and a 20 quid drink.  :cool:
