No great loss.
They were a brand new business, just like the Mercedes it shared the building with. Another brand new business, that was unsuccessful in diagnosing and rectifying an issue on an older car.
They even admitted that they were new and all of their technicians are juniors with limited experience on cars older than 20 years.
But they still charged my customer $280 for a diagnosis, unable to repair and when I picked the vehicle up from the dealership I drove it home and had it fixed in ten minutes for free. They are now only coming to me since I was able to actually diagnose and treat the symptoms not just charge money for looking at something and having no outcome.
It’s happening everywhere not just here, seasoned mechanics are retiring and the next generation aren’t being trained how to service the classic cars. Sad but true, I hope I can be around for long enough so that those that have a classic car and need someone to care for them can still have confidence that there is someone that cares enough to specialise only in older models to keep them alive for the future
