hmmmm yup bit of an odd one this one, last 2 times this was done, I insisted on staying with the car at garage had no choice , the guy took an absolute AGE! he was pussyfooting about , i was in a right mind to tell him , Chris you told me there was a fixed price to this, if it takes 10mins as opposed to 1 hour i will still pay you what we agreed! it took him 1 hour cos he was farting around with other jobs too but he did it fine.....this time good ole father in law volunteered to take x5 to a mate of his sons....panel beater, he did it in 30mins....and left that 1-2mm gap PLUS wouldn't accept payment! but my father in law gave him 20euros....
