[JillyB]

£160 -12k service

£41 -have new temp sensor fitted

£70-new rear tyre, as old one had a screw in it, and was not repairable due to the screw being on the edge.

*MOAN*

booooo that could have been a holiday for me, and they werent even interesting things for the car, and now I cant afford cliosport tax disc holder

*MOAN*

Sorry to hear your bad news Jilly. Is £70 for a tyre a bit too steep?

If you want a tax disc holder, I can add the cost on to my cheque and you can sort me out when your more flush?

Well mine cost me 240 for the sevice and 100 for other parts!! Also 50 for the rolling road - all in 2 days 390 ouch

I would have just bought another car.

Also 41 quid to fit a temp sender, where are they going on holiday this year? Must be warm anyway!

 

[Nath]

i had to pay 65 for a new key!!!

 

[Chris_H]

I had to pay 25 quid for a Saab 9000 with 2 days tax left and 2 weeks MOT with 30 quids worth of petrol in it! I felt violated! lol

got that beat, 1yrs road tax, 12k service, 17s, coilovers and then 4 wheels lazer alignment after the coilovers all at the end of last month/start of this month. dont even ask how much it all adds upto but end result = me broke

 

[Lee]

£160 sounds cheap considering the robbing b******s charged my £68 for just an oil and filter change a 5k miles

Shouldnt the temperature sensor have been covered by the warrenty? Or is that something not covered after the first year?

I had mine done for nothing.

Get a V6 and then you will have to pay for tyres !!!!!!!

 

[JillyB]

Dash, you are lovely, and thats a really kind offer, but i think ive found the money now, thank you again x

Lee, im out of warrentee, but Renault said it shouldnt have broke so early so they replaced it for free, i just had to pay for fitting.

Ive stopped moaning now, just need to put a bit of overtime in this month.

Dont complain I have got the insurance excess to cought up in the next two weeks plus a service coming up, plus 2 new tyres, yrs road fund and last of all next years insuracne.

That should total over £1600 best start saving now
