Gutted for you Ian I know they charged me a good lump just for looking at it and to boot they couldnt fine anything which means it could probably go again, they disconected the battery and plugged it into a ECU thingy and that was it

Hooray for the 10% discount

My car usually comes back from CVC absolutely stinking inside. Kind of like a white powder on the carpet mat and below the steering wheel. Very odd.
