    I am confused - you said you bought a watch for the missus and stayed for the craic - which makes no sense if you are now saying you were not a member and it was not from here?

    I guess it's one of those relationships where you both do things for each other. He does your car on the cheap and you clean his toilet for a knocked down price?

    One for the list.

    I'm deeply saddened you don't believe me i may not sleep tonight.

    if my comments or opinions on certain topics offend folk here that is not my intention. but they are mine and if you don't like them then you always have your list. so best move on and not worry about it

    We all like a deal, we all like to think we've saved a few quid....but what world do you live in where you think a business doesn't have the right to turn a profit for a service they supply to you.
    Added to that you have such a great relationship with a friend who's your mechanic where he gets you to check his invoices and does the labour on the cheap......he's either a Mug or f stupid.
    Buy hey atleast you've got a good deal whilst your mate is losing out on making profit on somebody else's vehicle whilst working on yours.

    I hardly think your original reply to me was called for where I was simply asking you a question. If you want to take that as an insult then fine. As you say it's an open forum

    So clearly your friend has at some point taken the piss, hence the reason you vet his invoices and supply your own parts.

    Back to the original topic as I believe FFF deserves better: it is my understanding that 'fake' parts are becoming more and more an issue. Since they are faked (all the correct stamps) they are difficult to identify but quality can be a very serious issue on safety critical parts like brake pads, discs, electronics and the likes, and in case of an accident the origin of the parts you fitted would come under scrutiny.
