Cars at the garage atm having its pre mot inspection ready for its first ever mot

So far:

Both side's anti roll bar needs changing
Driver side CV Boot AGAIN (3rd time this year?!)
Brake Fluid Reservoir Cap is missing

They've only had the car 20minutes, any guesses as to how much today will end up costing me?

Fucking thing

arb -> lowered suspension, so not covered.

brakes, fluid, cv boot are all "consumables" apparently

and noone can explain the lack of cap

Warranty has been useless since day one tbh - I won't be buying a new(ish) car ever again just because I wanted warranty - they have a way out of everything

If you're thinking of getting a mk4, don't - interior is aweful, nothing fits properly and it rattles like fuck, its the same in every one i've been in - also NO sound deadening anywhere on the car as standard

Other than that (the CV boot, ARBs, brakes and filler caps) they're brilliant
