Halfords rant!

[lukiep160]

I overheard a convosation by one of halfords staff to a customer once about a aircon regas they did, The customer was complaining that the air gon wasn't working after it had been gased, all the halfords staff could say was bring it back and we'll charge it again and then leave it running for 10 minutes and we'll check to see if its lost pressure. I wanted to say there and then that what i thought of them.

Then my very latest problem that i've had with them was with my bike, this bike is supposed to be a All terrain bike well thats what it says on the invoice. After 11months of road riding the wheel bent badly, after a trip to bodge it and scarper they wouldn't replace it even though its warranty.

I wouldn't even let halfords near my car after seeing one that they put a radio in and the vehicle wouldn't start because they smashed the imbillser transponder.

I must be the odd one out here.

My local halfords has 5 MG rover nuts working there.

One has a 260 SE and a 180 MK2 in firefrost

Theres 2 ZRs and quite a few Rovers.

Same here... Prices are sky high though so i'd still avoid them.

Car cleaning stuff and if i know what i want. Hell Fords are realy usless technically. Otherwise I buy it here in work. My local also appears to be chav central. Quite funny when one of them carved me up one night. I knew he worked there so raised the issue when i went in there next. He still stupidly asked how I know it was him even thought he parks his chaved up clio outside every day. Silver blue and primer grey is a memorable look.
