send money to me... quickly...i'm a dead man !

[VladTepes]

Got the Rangie serviced and tuned.
The service also included the auto gearbox service and verious other bits and bobs.
Now it would have been around the $6-700 mark which, I grant you, ain't cheap but for the fact that I had them instal the 'airbag man' emergency eas kit that I supplied. They did a REALLY neat job which I'm very happy with and I'm glad I didn't tackle the job myself coz it looks like a real nightmare to do a job that nice.

Anyway with an additional 4 hours labour and what have you, the last couple of days has set me back just on a gorilla :!: (that's $1,000 in the old money).

8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O

We'll I wasn't happy. Even the fella at the servicing place nearly fell over when he saw the invoice !!
(it's ok for him though - he's getting the money not paying it out!).

Now I told Mrs Vlad over the phone so she's slightly less likely to kill me as she'll have a few hours to digest it before she comes home. (of course that may just give her time to build up the rage which she will subsequently take out on me :!: ).

The reason this is such an issue is that, currently, we have no f'in money. Or rather, we have a bit over the required $ in a savings account BUT

or rather, <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%">BUT</span> (it's a big but...) ...






...that savings account is the WEDDING account :!: 8O :!: :!:






















Yep, I'm a dead man.

Oh and do you think Mrs Vlad will sell of the Rangie cheap once you've gone :wink:

I don't think that I have ever had a service on my Range Rover that ended up less than $1000. The last time it was in, I had the auto transmission overhauled. At least it gave me a chance to get the rear main seal done without having to pay for the transmission to be removed. You have to look on the bright side when you are forking out $4700 don't you!

Ouch!!!

Can I ask why you were expecting a service to cost that much, it seems like a heck of a lot :? :?
