Hi all
Im so frustrated that i still have not got my F back yet from the body shop as they have been waiting for parts a...... first wait was for a new piece of trim and we are still now waiting for a fuel filler cap.......
Can not find a new one anywhere and now looking to get a scrap secondhand one just to get my car back.
Does seam the availability of caps without matching key are unavailable and so the delay is to order a cap with a matching key to what i already have. The body shop has had my car now for 5 weeks and still waiting on parts !!!
Will be going to scrapyard tomorrow to see if i can get a cap !!!!

I will still be demanding a new replacement when it comes!!!!!

plus the fact they do not answer the phone when i call etc ...is getting very frustrating!!!

Im not a Happy Bunny !!!!!!

I wanted the car back for the run on sun ....... Do you think there is a case for compensatiojn due to the fact i have had to drive around in a VW for five..........yes F I V E .......weeeks !!!!!

Sorry to hear your tale of woe hope you can still make it on Sunday. Would it help if we all assisted in removing the VWs roof with a large hacksaw

:)Hi Charlie not sure if this will make you feel any better but I know what it's like. I had a mgbgt put it in for restoration told the bloke it was my only car! He said 4 weeks, that was good, 3 months later picked the car up. £3,300 the Quote, tried to charge me £4,600. Not very happy, paid him £3,800. All this time during winter my mate let me borrow his car to pick my kids up from Bristol, I live in Yeovil, a bl**dy VW beetle with no heater Brrrrrr! When you go pick it up just be sure of all your rights and stand your ground. Go to citizens advice they are very helpful they helped me alot. Good luck, Simon.
