Well Zelda needed her MOT done so booked into the garage that I always use great people known then for years, dropped her of this morning Gary said come back in an hour she should be done:), so returned in the hour and to quote Jan in reception sorry Baz she has failed :nailbiting: bloody hell what on, the reply was its not good news she went on to read out the faults which involved suspension bushes and trailing arms, handbrake fault & brake pipes both CV boots two Tyre's and a couple of other things by this time I'm thinking bloody hell anyway
I was told the bill would be £928 I did point out that she had new Tyre's all round about 6 months ago Jan suspected I had been down a pot hole as two of the Tyre's had bulge's in them so I was not best pleased:eek:
so told the garage to go ahead and repair her, left the garage a little dismayed as the car has never had an advisory let alone a failure, and certainly could not remember driving into any pot holes:rage:
so started walking back home when I received a call from the garage (Jan) apologizing profusely she had given me the wrong readout from another BMW =)) oh how we laughed at the garage and by the way Jan is blonde
me happy bunny again Zelda passed with no advisories as usual:scorecard:
 
Did the garage go ahead with the £928 of work on the other car - on your instructions? :D
 
Bloody Hell Bazza bet that was a relief :eek:
 
Bloody hell, you couldn't make it up Bazza! I'd have been in tears lol. Good news in the end tho. :thumbsup:

Dave when she was telling me the list of faults my eyes may have welled up=))
 
Excellent story Baz made be giggle....good news for you - not so good for the other BMW driver.
 
How easy is to jump from a rainy day to a clear sky!:) Seems that with car it's easier...imagine this situation with a doctor diagnostic...some people comit suicide on such error :(
 
Yoiks Baz, what a story=)). I bet your heart sank when she said Zelda had failed. then dropped even further when she read out the list of failures. Good news eventually though, have a couple of Guinness' to celebrate or a couple of bottles of red - your choice;)
