What garage mate?

F1s have been superseaded a couple times. Don't tend to get them round here these days.

I would be going back down there for an exchange.
Did you not question the description and amount when they asked for £106?

tbf if you said ''i want f1's'', and you have a welsh accent, then it's likely it just sounded like avons to them.
