Very true.
I'm hoping that when he says he knows where to go now he means the local guy. Yes there are sharks out there, but if you have a good local garage they're great. They tend to need the work more than the big dealerships and so look after you to make sure you come back.

What a lying bunch of cnuts they are.
I took an old Mini there for an MOT once. They quoted over £500 for work to be done, including 2 worn front wheel bearings/track rod ends and steering rack (plus various non MOT fails they tried to fail it on).

I knew it was OK, so took it to a small garage where they found the real problem - a £2 nylon bush had gone on the steering column. That was the only fail.

I wish I'd taken the matter further.
