Earlier this year I took my Toyota Supra to Mark at Simonstown Motors for a blown head gasket.
The parts for this job cost under R1000, I was presented with an invoice for R12000.
I could have put a new Toyota motor in for this price as I had shopped around exploring this option before I decided to rather repair my motor as I though it should be much cheaper.
Mark said he would not release the car until paid in full, but there was a guarantee on the head that had been overhauled.
Before motor had done 500km it had broken down again, when I went to collect I received another bill for R2900 for labor on the head which was supposed to be under guarantee.
Since the have worked on my car my power steering line was broken, the steering wheel is at 45deg even though the cars wheels are straight.
Problem after problem but according to mark they have never been at fault?
Don't trust these, they will rip you off!!
I have since taken my car elsewhere and everything has been sorted at a reasonable price without a hick-up...
