That's a fantastic effort to record all that - just goes to show how much work can be involved working on cars.
Surprised they didn't fit a new loom given how far stripped out it was.

wow
I suspect one of the reasons they made the effort of filming the entire process was to justify the size of the bill to the insurer/customer.

I'm sure the Audi service guys are well trained, but I wouldn't want that car back if it was mine. Made in Germany, rebuilt in a dealer service bay... I'll pass thanks

Given it was "delivery mileage" and a number of years old also - I suspect it had been stored off road - I wonder if they even had insurance!?
In any case, goes to show - low mileage cars are not always a good idea!!!!! |
