No haven't put it on recom'd page, but I will. I have been impressed with the daily updates and running costs. Like a ladder in a stocking - always going up.
You remember those things, don't you girls and boys?
Rosy's home, safe and well, and feeling very good at the wheel. She'd get a bit of a wobble up at 100KPH, but everything's stable now. At least with my car, not sure about me and my diesel fund.
I just hope the tax man will understand.
Today I gave her a treat and scrubbed the grasshopper jam off her windscreen. The hoppers are really bad from Gawler to the Barossa.
I washed most of it off with a window scrubber and then a paste of carb soda on a wet cloth scrubbed the rest of the junk off, polished off when dry with a dry cloth, and she's literally glowing.

i am a licenced motor dealer and an old boss of mine always said "mechanics are moral thieves" i am still in the motor trade and i get baffled at how costs always escalate on a job and i believe it is because we have no choice but to fix our vehicles and mechanics know this best advice as you have already been told is "get a written quote" also where posible get a recommendation for a mechanic for the area you are in from this site i would suggest cheers
