I recon your 1st port of call should be our mate benny, he is in your neck of the woods. Short of that, try a mate of mine here in brissy, Rob @ bedford manor, almost garantee a success. Good luck mate.

Geez Ben
unless they fixed up something that was defective someone must have put the decimal point in the wrong place ;)
How long did they take cuz even letting the imagination run wild and them charging $105/hr that is five hrs to check lights wipers brakes etc ;D
Gunna come back as a mechanic 8)

they spent 5 hours i think

i then took it back with a bit of stuff changed eg. disc brake setup i changed. but that was about it.

they then did another check and failed me on the disc brake rotor being .3mm undersize.


3rd appearance he gave me roadworthy.


should i contact VACC?
