Where do I begin... my worst day ever... Drove to Leeds this morning about 6.30 for my medical appointment and just when I arrived my car died. Battery I thought. Called my friend who came around 9.00am and jump-started me car. Ok, I thought, off to the halfords for a new battery. Fortunately they did free battery check and turned out my was fine... WTF?? So off to home I go. Managed to get to Wakefield (7-8miles) and my car died again. Was lucky I pulled right to Kwik-Fit garage. Unlucky Kwik-Fit is most useless garages in the world. So had to arrange some breakdown cover. But as I was already broken down the AA ripped me off £138 for a most basic cover that is £30 over the internet. Ok, I swallowed it. Patrol came over, tested my battery and turned out my alternator was f**ked. He said I can get home as it was still charging a bit so off I went again. After incredible 0.5 mile my car died again. Another phone to AA, same patrol showes up and decision... As my cover doesnt include recovery to home and lady over the phone quoted me £110 extra for this option I thought I was really f**ked now but hey, no choice. I had to get home somehow. Fortunately AA guy was a great bloke and fitted me with his spare battery and followed me all the way to my home for free. Thanks man So Ive bought an alternator off ebay for £40 and I will sort it when it arrive. BUT I really need a car to get to Leeds every morning by 7am until Saturday or I will lose £1800 so I had to rent a car for a week for £160 and pay £35 for a taxi to pick it up before they close. So that was my great day. My car is dead, lost almost £400 and wasted all day . F**K IT!!!
