I DONT WANT BUDGETS!!

Hi Guys,

Yesterday my car was in for it's MOT and failed on a few things, one being the front tyres.

When I went to pick up the car I had the guy price me up a pair. £80 for some budget Arrowspeed thingys.

I told him I didn't want budgets on it, then he came out with this corker....

"You see there's no point putting anything more expensive on a car of that age, you might aswell go for the cheapest. The only person I've had complain about them was when we fitted them to a RX8, but then THAT has around 190bhp.
You might also want to consider if it's worth replacing the springs on an old Honda, it might be best just to get shot."

I think my GF noticed the twitch in my eye and nudged me in the side before I could say anything.

Quality. I'd have pulled him over the counter for that

I would have slapped him. Then slapped a 4th gen just for the hell of it.

What an arse. Clearly he knows nothing about the car. Time for a new garage man!

PS - RX8's are for gays and queers and stuff.

TBH one of the things it failed on was a fuel leak
