tumblespots I never had any problems with Halfords in my area . But Kwikfit are fraudsters . They offer free MOT and fail car until unnecessary work done . Managers get commission for all unnecessary work. I once failed MOT with them but passed it with another garage . Luckily I did not allow them to dismantle my car . Always take car to trusted garage for MOT. Otherwise fraudsters offer free MOT and then pressure you to change parts unnecessarily and will deliberately damage your car just to make a sale .
PaulaG You've only been with us since December 2020 and I haven't posted it during that time due to the problem about extra work...so how would you know?
samoflondon Sadly, I wouldn't trust Halfords as they couldn't even put a bike together properly when we bought one from them. Never had any problem with Kwikfit, although we've not used them for an MOT.
tumblespots lol, good point
mrmac you keep on forgetting you're still quite new to this site as 'PaulaG' but yet you seem to know quite a lot about others and past posts...
also tumblespots, he is saying 'mum' in your posts to suggest that you and me are the same person, funny isn't it? In the past he also claimed RegularComper90 was my duplicate account lol
sunshinemum I just assumed he thought I was 'old'! You are right though, he/she forgets that he/she shouldn't know what went on before he/she joined LD
tumblespots ah I was reading the description thinking how nice and then I wonder what the catch is!
PaulaG OMG mrmac, this is so funny, you wouldn't be a good detective that's for sure, do you know how many people joined on that day? lots and lots as it was around the time LD was founded, I would be curious to know about the other striking similarities that you discovered Also, if you could share some tips with us on how to open multiple accounts as you are a bit of an expert yourself, although it didn't go well for you in the end My favourite account I must say was AgnesMann
sunshinemum Was AgnesMann the retired school teacher who liked freebies or was that Mrmac, it gets everso confusing x
Ooh really good freebie just to check that the car is safe and drive around feeling confident with your car
studentgirl123 You can do the tests yourself . Internet has loads of information . Original Manual of the car and Hayes manual also have very useful information.
Thanks for sharing this offer with us at Halfords even though I don't trust them cos you will get a big bill going to you from Halfords
Dont do it guys. Im an amature mechanic, and every single car thats been to my local halfords for an mot has failed with a huge list of fails. All total rubbish, and most cleared its mot in a diffrent test center with out even a tyre kick needed.
