mild grumpy rant coming........


Honest to God!!! Who TF shops in that chavtastic dump?

Loads of furry dice and pink fluffy crap for Corsa virgins.

I have rarely seen such low quality cheap crap in one place  :sick:

Even the staff look embarrased to sell it!

Erm I shop at halfrauds. Usually when they have 3 for 2 or BOGOF offers on cleaning stuff. Or their professional tools with lifetime warranty.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I also rate their pro tools range with the lifetime warranty and recently bought the 150 piece set for £99.99 instead of £199.99 plus i got a £10 voucher as well

Agreed on the tools and the 3 for 2 offers on cleaning stuff. That is the only reason why I go in.

Bingo, everyone thinks there great deals when most of the time they aren't, for some reason detailing world go mad for the 3f2 .
They do a discount on the oz alloys now and again which isn't bad.

They arent bad for cleaning stuff... but some cars you see and you just think "Well they have just rolled straight out of Halfords" I cant stand cars with the silly pink dice, seat covers etc...

I popped in to Halfords the other day to pick up some Loctite I reserved online and witnessed the manager bollocking one of his staff on the shop floor. Kind of summed it up really.

Most of the staff do look really miserable at my local branch, and the dopey security guard always gives you a look that makes you feel like a thief (i haven't stole anything since i was a kid)  :innocent:
