just spoke to the garage thats doing my car, still not ready, theyve fitted all my stuff but hes on about my wheels being out of alignment so i said well just do the camber and tracking, but he seems to think my shaft is hanging out on the drivers side...  funny how it was in fine and i was driving it before the gearbox went,
stupid garages!

replaced my coilovers with my bilstein kit, replaced gearbox, clutch, was meant to be doing my cam, belt + tens but he cant be arsed, rear braided lines and an mot, i thought he was replacing my wing too but he doesnt do bodywork
hes on about the wheels pointing out and i said its just the tracking and he said well the rods would come out the rack
sounds like hes angling for a lower arm now

seriously, he was like well the old cam is fine and i said well it is but this one will change the timing as ive fitted a larger inlet and injector and he was like well you need to prioritise the work, i was just thinking well itll be a priority when the emissions are wrong on the mot

Sounds like a proper messer and a lazy fat cunt
