the car rolled into a bollard after the handbrake being applied, handbrake didnt work, 10 clicks uo still nothing, they fitted incorrect parts causing it to fail, they have admitted and i have this in writing.

1 quote from a well respected guy near me quoted £1000 to return to standard so that one was no good.... and i've got another 2 here for around the £6/700 mark, i know the guy who i want to do it but downside hes on his hols for a couple of weeks, (got quote as he was packing up). i think i will wait for him to come back to sort as hes a nice guy, plus in that time i can get the headlights and grill ordered progress soon....ish
