This is a question Conned

swiftyisNOTevil writes, "I have recently become obsessed with the BBC Three show 'The Real Hustle' - personally, I think of it as a 'How To' show for aspiring con artists."

Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

Essex's Premier VW/Audi specialist
A certain well known VW specialist in Colchester; first word is the surname of a gay singer called "Elton" and second word is associated with a series of films about a 1960s English secret agent played by Mike Myers and a now defunct British car maker; which proudly advertises its' expertise in maintaining popular German cars.

However, customers may or may not experience the following issues with their VW's upon return:

1) Buckled jacking points where vehicles have been left on axle stands too long.

2) Plastic bodywork damaged and poorly repaired thanks to numpty-trolleyjack related misdemeanors.

3) Total inability to fit a suspension part common to all VW Golfs manufactured between 1974-1998 and ignorance of which way up it should be mounted.

4) Numptyism of the above resulting in suspension wishbones being damaged.

5) Sudden appearence of paintwork damage upon collection of said German car.

6) Total inability to fit a passenger door mirror of the same type as the one on the driver's side.

If you're thinking of buying a secondhand VW in the North Essex area, watch out for a little square blue sticker in the rear window stating "Serviced & repaired by John Austin" If it's got one, walk away....
