Car Service Price guidesite

Post by Hoovie »

Saw this on another forum and thought it could be quite handy .....

"Should Pay"

"Thank you for visiting this site, Should Pay is the UK's (if not World's) only Car Repair Guide Price Database. We have over 3700 UK spec cars in our database with over 60,000 prices. Never again will you have to go into a mechanic's garage without knowing what price you should be paying for car repairs.

What's more the site is all FREE! What's even more is that you DO NOT need to Register, we don't want / need your email address and we won't spam you for looking, It genuinely is all free!"
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?"
She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
