Just thought i'd let everyone know not to buy anything from ShropVaux in Shifnall - Shropshire
I bought a 2nd hand Corsa GSi 16v engine from with 1month warranty for £300
the valve seals needed replacing as it was smoking alot and using oil, he said to get the work done and he would send a cheque for £100 and i could have £75 worth of spares from him to pay towards the valve seals
I rang up today to ask for my cheque and he refused to give it to me and says the company has changed names. what a prick, all this fuss over £100??
Im not bothered about the money, just thought id tell everyone so it dosent happen to them either.
The twat who owns the shit-hole of a garage is called trevor and thier number is 01952 462680
Stay away!
