ive recently seen an influx of dumb stuff happening regarding cars does any one else want to post up their funny stories too?
1. customer comes in today with his car (which sounds like a huge bag of bolts) and approaches one of the lads i work with, about 30 sec later my colleague excuses him self to go into the locker room and collapse laughing. it turns out that the customer had done a service (drained the oil and changed the filter ) and then couldnt get off the filler cap! so he drove about 10 miles with no oil! how it didnt seize ill never know
2. a customer asking if we car turn their tyres inside out so as to get more life from them
ive decided to keep it short so this will be the last for this post
3. yesterday i went to a garage that ive never visited before so i got a little lost, while i was looking for it i turned round in a yard of some description, upon entering i noticed one of those gate stops that sticks out of the road but before i knew it schpling i had hit it and was now getting thrown into my seat belt as it had hit my lower strut brace and stopped the car, from 25 mph
(im lucky i didnt loose an airbag) and also as a part of this, all those times when your cruising round town and theres a group of people watching you go by when SCHRRRCHCHCHHHHH you scrape down the road and they all look like they have just taken a bite from a lime
