Thanks everyone for your much needed sympathy.

I’ve just finished a nice big caipirinha so I’m feeling a little less wound up.

I will certainly be going for the throat on Monday, like neilmc says, why the hell should I have a less than perfect car and settle for what’s easy for them in repairing the wheels. Alloys that are filled and repainted are never as good as the original wheel surface from the factory.

Many moons ago I used to me a mechanic working for Cadillac in California and always ensured that a customers car was treated with the up most care and consideration. Unfortunately, it’s the same old “I don’t give a s**t” scourge of today’s society.

Hey Helen I had a S60 T5 as well a few years ago!
