No......priceless will be the quote he gives you to fix your car after he had demolished it. Then doubles it when he gives you the final "hit" !!
Could always tell when he was about to bullshit as he used to have a nervous twitch in the form of a "sniff" before he'd say a figure. It was as if he knew he was about to rip you off.
Well Ian......fitting your turbo will be "sniff" 1800 pounds.
Rebuilding your bottom end would be "sniff" 5 grand.
Etc "sniff" etc......
I recall this nervous sniff now all throughout my dealings with him. It only dawned on me recently.
Another tuner in the same immediate area also has this "sniff". And I've heard he is about to go bang as well!!
I think he and Paul Hills both went to the school of doing a small sniff before saying an exhorbitantly high price. Its like the Monty Python Ministry of Funny Walks......only much more fuckin expensive!!
Does anyone else now recall this nervous twitch? Im being serious lol!!
