No, they printed them off to see if I was wrong on jacking the cross member, in the end they were wrong and admitted it

I was seeing the warning signs as soon as they mentioned 'window tint not legal' - behind the 'B' pillar, you con do what you want ...
Time to find another garage, before the car gets wrecked.Regards,

I would make sure that when you make the booking, ensure they have a jack that can cope.

This lot http://www.btfleet.com/aboutUs/about-bt-fleet.aspx are very use to MOT ing anything from a Corsa to as big as you want to think about. Loads of UK locations, No fuss or issues - use to do my D3 , and they always have loads of contract LR's with odd attachments on them in for maintenance. Think they look after the AA , Eon, etc fleets..............Somewhere in-between my old D3 and what's to come next .........
