All the best. Social media may help in situations like this. It seems to be a good tool for raising hell when necessary.

Good luck, when a garage stole one of my cars for an imaginary unpaid bill it took me 5 years to get it back.

Well, I got the keys back in the post last week- enabling me to unload safely, and today this happened

Yup- I persuaded him to give me all the missing trims, panels, lights etc. Agreed he could leave them outside @4.30 pm so he didn’t need to meet me..

However, I thought it wise to take the boss- ( who is throughly pissed with all of this) in case testosterone took over.

So, everything’s back. Now we go for the money/ throat. That’ll be fun.

Some of that appears to be water damaged, how much are replacement parts from Honda these days ?


It is sad to see a business end up in this predicament, if they are circling the drain financially that is bad news for the industry.


Hmmm

Yup. It seems he employs SebDigital to hide unfavourable reviews, or then gets his mates ( presumably) to swamp them.

I’ve tracked over a dozen bitter complaints, a few CCJ’s , ( some unpaid) & some heavy ish High Court action.

Thanks Guys. I’ve got it all back- so can get her car sorted for Spring. Legals will take a little longer

Something fishy with the reviews. Seems odd to me that there was no reviews left from 2016 to 2021.

Highly suggestive of the state of the 'industry', I would venture. From your first post it immediately occurred to me that their business was going tits up and they were grasping for any money they could.

Those reviews are shocking looks like they have been doing exactly the same thing to other customers for years
