exactly the same item, but one bought from a different store location on the same day from the same chain of stores. how can the other store justify charging that much extra!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Sprints are terrible, especially with their spray paints... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ah don't get me started on customer service! You call up to check on a price / availability, and they say 'yes, it's here'.. rock up there and it's not there. What the?! Most places treat you like you're a 2 year old, and don't actually listen to you. Phaa

i find sprints good but only the one we use for work, and its good coz they know me so i get good discount and they dont talk to me like im a ****. They are just people trying to do their job, im sure you'd probably get sick of the amount of hopeless dodgy people they have come in asking stupid questions and thinking they are all mechanics. thats the way i see it anyway

Did you tell stinky pink that in years to come you could see that one day there would be a 3ltr engine that would hold a thing called a turbine on the side of the block and it would desecrate that red heap of ****. Probably even muttered to your self this isnt GREASE! I bet you won the tv show and walked off the set and said that's all. You shut the car bible which you had already started writing at the age of 5 and disappeared into the sunset in a 70's stanza. Soon to be turbo'd Had a few beers i'll be fine Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
