My xenon chap has gone AWOL.
lol typical...
So just had a phone call from VW Oakmere in Northwich. The conversation went something like this...
"Hi Andy, your cars ready for collection. We changed your back light for you as well because that was out. we spent 1.5 hours on your car so were having to charge you for 1/2 hours fitting so total bill is £121.00 all in (incl VAT)."
Erm...but you said it was free fitting, and I didnt ask you to change the back bulb....
"yeah but it was quite tricky and we had to take the headlight out to do it, which involved taking the bumper off and we spent quite a lot of time on the car"
...but you said it was free fitting...how can you ask me to pay for something that you said was free...(10 second silence)
"I can't ask my mechanic to work for free"
...then you shouldn't have told me it was free fitting, then I would have been able to make an informed decision. When I walked out of the garage I had a bill of just over £70.00. now your telling me its £120 odd. What kind of organisation you running there pal lol - actually laughed out loud down the phone.
"But.."
No buts mate, just because its a gti, and I wear a suit doesnt mean I'm made of money. Nor does it mean you can change an agreement which you and I both had when I left.
"Ok Andy, I'll credit the labour charge for you, don't worry about it, come and collect the car when your ready"
THE F**KING CHEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can tell you how mad this conversation just made me.
