Default Big thankyou to Powerstation

just had a 30k service and rear ARB and droplinks fitted.
Just want to say big thanks to Nick for working on the car and letting me see what was going on, i learned quite a bit.
Thankyou to all the guys at Powerstation to have the patience and time to chat about cars, mods etc....
I read a lot of threads on hear praising Powerstation and i'am very happy to report they're all correct.
If anyone is not sure where to take their scoob for any work then go to Powerstation - end of, full stop..... you will not be disappointed

Yeah guys ... thanks for doing the job you were paid for ... yeah!!!!!

I would like to thank the MOT testing station for testing my car last year and for smiling when taking my money!

I would like to thank the doctors for operating upon me when I needed it, they did a wonderful job ........ I would recommend a doctor if you need an operation!

I would like to thank the Optician for testing my eyes in a most considerate way and for charging me for the glasses supllied .... a large smile was shown as he took my money.

I would like to thank the butcher for slicing my ham so well this morning and for a cheerful attitude when putting my money in his till!!

FFS can we PLEASE stop this IDOL worship of people who happen to do a good job on your car - that is the MINIMUM expected!!

Not having a go at Powerstation, I'm sure they are superb at their job and THAT IS THE POINT it IS their job!!!!!!!

Pisses me right off all this bum buddy idolising - PATHETIC!!!

To add insult to injury we get a recommendation from a newbie with 1 post - whilst not indicating any wrong doing ... isn't it a bit suspect????

Ah, yes, but I'm a regular at Xtreme Scoobies and I say you'll not be dissapointed there too! I'd use which ever one is closer as they both have fine reputations! In fact, I'm thinking of taking PS up on their Ecutek Group buy!

PS I also wet myself reading Pete's post.....I wasn't laughing, I was just showing our dog that doing it in the house is neither big, nor clever!!

good old Pete can always rely on you for some deep rooted sinicism where would we be without you ... miserable old ...

agreed they where doing what they are paid for but.... plenty of muppets out there that do what they're paid for and do it badly... so its not idol worship i just wanted to share my experience to help others ... is that not what a forum is for?

... i've just changed my name so hence the newbie status

but you are funny

1. This has to be the most undiplomatic way of welcoming a newbie onboard.
2. Infact you dont know if he is a newbie, he could of just changed his username/or even set up a second one.
3. So some one who has posted over 16,000 times should know better..
4. But of course every one has the right to say what they like..

You are a quality bloke Mr Lewis, you do make me chorlte, just be careful that your local butcher is not serving you rat meat, and that when you have that operation it is not done by the doctor who's known as 'shakey' by his colleagues...or has the last name Goebels

Thats a bit unprofessional ..... posting on a thread about Powerstation as a Powerstation Employee

Like I said, Powerstation are probably GREAT at what they do!!!

But this Bum-Boy Idolising is pathetic .......

1. A newbie would NOT post like that - so, I was safe in the knowledge that it was Powerstation touting for work

2. Yes I KNOW it was!!

3. Yes a 16,000 post count DOES give certain priveledges

4. Of course they have

Have you had your sense of humour surgically removed, could I enquire???

It's FRIDAY - lighten up!!!

At the risk of getting a bollo@king:

PS do go the extra mile.
They do meet the expectations of their customers.

It is good people let others know. One of the reasons for this Forum?

It is a free house so that is good.
How you do 16K entries beats the hell out of me...

The guy is happy, that is good.

Graham

Not an employee of PS
Not a newbie
A happy PS 'customer' and I AM one of their suspension 'bitches' (what does that really mean?), but it is great fun to be in this position!

Graham.

Sigh...........Does amaze me how many similar Lewis posts wind so many up....

I reckon the PS in PSLewis stands for PowerStation, and he's just slagging them off in a clever peice of reverse marketing that makes us all go there.

Come on Pete, you can admit your a shareholder........

The signature tells me he is their bitch, or he idolises them, or he works there, or he is so sad that his only friends are car mechanics

I have no idea why my posts wind people up - I just speak my mind, tell it as I see (and as it generally is) ......

I take no prisoners ... don't come to me if you are a sad loser because I will tell you to fooook off

I would be proud to be associated with such a great buch of guys as those at PowerStation ............... but I don't feel the need to come on here saying, "I love you!!"

A business relationship is fine ... these outfits understand that ... sadly some people are so lonely that they think they are really their buddies! Sad, very sad

And why do my posts irritate a 'certain' type of person??
