Thanks for replies

I'm near the M6 J9/10

At the moment they have got my car and there saying about 2 weeks...I'm 100% that they will NOT complete and repair my car.

Once this is all over with trading standards I will NAME AND SHAME them.

Question for any one who knows about MOT.....They MOT my car after the original "repair", if you look at the wheel photos you will see a crack in the alloy and its also slightly out of shape....Is this part of the MOT??

Shoddy work indeed!

Hope it all gets resolved, but it did look like quite a gamble judging from the initial work needed doing.

I can see from one of your engine bay pics that the slam panel is misaligned, the rear edge should be more or less parallel to the front edge of the acoustic cover, which yours plainly isn't.

If the structure of the car is off all the exterior panels like the wings, bonnet, front bumper will also be out of true, I reckon some careful measurement of the front of your car would show the drivers side is slightly shorter tha the passenger side.

Steward is the one who did the bodywork and he also claims that he's Ex MG Rover!
