2018 Fabia went in for MOT today.
At last year's MOT the garage tried to do me for £1200 for shock absorbers. I practically cried on the phone and it became an advisory.
This year, I went to a different garage to see if previous garage was trying to fleece me. New garage checked them - no issue.
Full service all fluids and MOT - £220.
First garage = fuckers.

My best garage experience was when I lived in Walthamstow, it was just around the corner and had good reviews, perfect I thought, until I received a PCN for entering a traffic calming zone... they forgot to tell me not to arrive between 9-11am and couldn't be arsed when I pointed that out.

Whilst I can see that it would have been nice if they had forewarned, I'm not sure I see a huge degree of fault in not doing so. Was the traffic calming zone not signposted at all?
