Here’s a hypothetical situation for you: your girlfriend scrapes the sill of her new Nissan Micra against a large flint. The result is a tear in the sill and a mess made of the paintwork. She takes it to an authorised Nissan dealership to be repaired. What does the dealership do next? Replace the sill? Or stick a length of duct tape over the damage and spray-paint it silver?

Obviously they wouldn’t do the latter, because that’d be the work of feckless amateurs. But for argument’s sake, let’s say they did whip out the duct tape and spray paint - how much do you think the dealership would charge? £20? £30? Or £102 labour plus £57.50 for paint and materials?

Congratulations! Welcome to the world for Rawstock Nissan in Didcot! That’s the alleged scene of the crime according to Adam, a member of the Overclockers forums. Here’s the repair job his girlfriend’s car received:

Park outside for a week in a bloody big van with a sign on the side saying the obvious with the car next to it and offer to show any customers the fine work.
