I own an Escort RS Cosworth (MONTE),

I broke down last week, My car overheated, and i pulled over to the side of the road, and called the RAC, a patol man came an hour later, and looked over the car, i said, it need towing, it is not a quick fix, i prep rally cars INCLUDING COSWORTHS, its my day job, it was evident he had no idea what he was looking at anyway.

He decided to try and check if my cooling system has an air lock which i said it does not, He then lost the radiator cap and the bleed screw

he put a cap on from the back of his van, and bodged a SCREW in the hole for the bleed screw, he made no attempt to find where he lost them, said that the car is fine, and left, i refused to sign his paper work, and i called the rac, he had already been on the phone to them, i tried to complain, and the lady said, he only lost a screw ,
at the end of the day, its my car, and is like the day it rolled out of the factory,

i then said, the car is not fixed, and its still over heating, as all the patrol man done was lose parts of my car, they said i would be towed the 4 miles home....

i explained it needs a low loading flatbed, as it wont go on a standard one, as its low, - as standard, and had a front splitter etc.... i also stated its 4X4,

cut a long story short, they sent out a van, the same patrol van as earlier, and waster more of my time....
then they sent a speclifter from a contractor, my car cant be speclifted as its a 4x4.

in the end a flat bed came, my car would not go on it as its too low.,,, back on the phone to the rac, and they wanted me to pay for specialist equptment, so i asked why should i do so, my car is standard, i did not mod it in anyway. so i was charged, a flat bed came out, and we got home, i was glad to be home 6 hours later, then the man unloading it scrapped the rear quater panel with a rachet strap.

so now my car needs atleast 800spent in the paint shop now,

RAC, thanks very for damaging a classic that was a rare mint condition car with under 15k on the clock.
