A garage quotes you £375 to get your £100 banger ('96 Polo 1.4) through an MOT
Another garage does the work after your car is commadeerd by your dad who feels you are incapable of actually sorting out your own car and charges £150 but car does pass MOT This time and with no advisories.
The above garage sort the slight misfire/stalling when braking issue but now my £100 banger is running sluggish as hell and shakes like my washing machine on spin over 60 when before it was running smooth as anything well over 80.
Plus the garage owner is a mate of my dad so when he makes a smug remark and I tell him where to go (in less than ladylike fashion followed by nearly driving my car and him through the shutters) my Dad rounds on me.
Seriously hate that garage men treat me like I am stupid and don't know my own car and they know better. They don't understand no matter what they do my car doesn't like the rain, messing around with the wheels does not make anything better and I hate that I spend the next 2 days trying to adjust my seat to how I like it.
Oh I wish I was a mechanic.
What garage/car idiot things do you gus hate....
