Ok, so I ring the garage this morning to ask why they didn't call me yesterday with prices.
The guy says he hasn't had time, and waffled on about it not being an easy or quick fix and that it was going to expensive.... I then said that there was no issue with any of that, but would it be possible to check the car out for rust as if its sound I'll go full steam ahead, but if theres any rust I'll cut my losses. He then goes on in a real negative manner that he's going to have to put the car back on the ramp to check and thats not going to be immediate... bla bla bla...
Anyway, I've told him that as he has no interest in doing anything with the car I will pick it up within 24 hours.
The garage is Lingley Autos at Gemini in Warrington.
Avoid like the plague.

No, I bought the car from another crook in Leeds.
Interesting. What would the benefit of this be?
Nice one. I'll give that a go.
I tell you what we use at work with great success on bad burners/smokers
Wynn's oil treatment
It's basically glue in a can
Get it from Halfords, two tins of that and fill her up with fresh 20w50, if that don't slow it down I think you've got a hole in a piston
Nice one.

Coming in your ears.
They have ditched sonic and rebranded
I **** myself cos I thought they'd ditched it all together, but it has been replaced with a similar item
The zinc and phosphorus levels were high so it's the same stuff
Found out some info though whilst I was digging
Car oils have the metal contents limited and sonic is nearly on the limits, but motorcycle oils have no such limit
You can buy 20w50 for bikes with double the ZDDP content of sonic!!
