Wait, what?!

So let’s recap:

1️⃣ Brian gets hit

2️⃣ Brian does the legwork to get quotes

3️⃣ Brian chooses a cut-price repair to keep the other person happy

4️⃣ Brian agrees to pay for the extra bits out of his own pocket 😳

Mild-mannered chap. Loves a Full English. Has a soft spot for Motown classics and says “cheers” at the end of every sentence, even on emails. But last week, Mr Davies made a critical error:

You see it every day.

That ugly dent.

The scratched paint.

The constant reminder your car is no longer smooth and flawless as it once was.

Every time you walk up to it, your stomach twists. 🤢

It’s embarrassing.

This resulted in two things:

1. The paint blistering ever so slightly (which he ignored).

2. The metal getting way too hot.

But undeterred, Colin moved to step two: The Plunger Pull.

They hit your car.

“Just get a few quotes, and I’ll pay,” they say.

You think, “Wow, maybe this won’t be so bad.”

WRONG.

“My chest hurts.”

Now, we love fixing cars, but we’re not doctors.

The car?

Well… the Hyundai is a great little car.

But it ain’t a tank.

It was done.

THE REALITY OF MODERN REPAIRS

This isn’t just Emma’s story. It’s happening every day.

Modern cars are filled with hidden costs that most people don’t think about until it’s too late.

So if you find yourself in Emma’s shoes—whether it’s a mirror, a bumper, a scratch, or something worse—ask yourself:

Do you want it done at the cheapest price?

Or do you want it done right and safe?

Because when it comes to repairs, the real cost isn’t the bill—it’s what happens when you cut corners.

Graham never thought much about fancy car technology.

Lane assist, automatic braking, collision detection—it all sounded like something from a car advert, not something he actually needed.

His car had Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)—but he didn’t know what that really meant.

And when it mattered most? Neither did his car.

Your car is smarter than you think.

It’s loaded with sensors, cameras, and radars you don’t even notice.

But here’s the problem…

Most people don’t realise these high-tech systems can FAIL after even a minor accident.

And when they do, your car becomes a silent danger on the road.

That little fender bender you had last month?

It might have knocked your car’s ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) out of alignment—without you even knowing.

Yes, beards. Big, small, well groomed, questionable… even a few on the ladies (hey, no judgment, it’s 2025 and we fully support personal grooming choices). Now I cant talk because I fall into ‘can’t grow a beard for toffee’ category.

But that wasn’t the only thing they had in common. Oh no.

At least three quarters of these fine, bearded individuals had suffered the same tragic fate…

🔹 They’d been hit in a car park.
🔹 No note.
🔹 No witnesses.
🔹 And because the universe has a cruel sense of humour no cameras.

"We’ll give you a deal, but we can’t put it in writing."
Ah yes, nothing says "trustworthy" like a mystery price that will probably double once the job’s half done. 💰🚨
