Yeah, Cowboy it seems.

just go to any bodyshop and say u need ur rear brake compensator sorted, u need a bracket made up for it rather than a cable tie.

A ha right, ok, well hmmm, all right then :) That's better than what i thought anyway, i didn't think it had Disks, didn't realise the drums were brakes to be honest :P I ain't exactly a Car person

Bastard i bought it off probably did it, he was a mechanic.

Thats bollox.

I ahd my spare wheel arch cut out and the sh1tty bodyshop calbe tied the rear brake compensator back on. Was not impressed and also failed on only that.

Went to a local bodyshop, charged me (of which i charged the other bodyshop) £50 to make a bracket up and bolted it thru the floor.

Dont pay any more than £50.

All cars have rear brakes whether it be disks or drums. Corsa have drums.

£190 :lo: Lmfao, what a cowboy!

The bloke @ the M.O.T. Place has just failed me because this is apparently "cable tied" on

What is it ? I didn't think my corsa had rear brakes (1.4 SRi 93 K Reg) ?

How much should it cost to get fixed ?

He said £190 just for the part
