In my area are 2-3 very busy big painting shops and all of have they'r own at least 10 cars (if not more) and when someone bring the car need to be fixed they get the customer car inside, evaluate it and instantly lend to the customer a car for the whole period of time when the customer car is inside the shop to be fixed until is done.. When the customer car is ready they call the customer that brings the shop-backup car and pays for the painting work and get the car fixed from the shop.Guys with smaller garages are not popular in here.

Regarding a camera in the car... I once had an Octavia RS into the main dealer for a service and it was in their carpark afterwards waiting for the courtesy wash that I'd told them not to perform (that's another story.) A couple of their lads jumped in and one commented on the front and rear dashcams to which the second replied that they're hardwired so always recording. Moments later the driver floored it from a cold start, in sport mode, across the bumpy gravel parking area giving mine and every other car they passed a free sandblasting. Some people simply either don't care that they're being recorded or don't have the brain capacity to consider the implications.

Maybe, the original accident was his fault. Maybe that's why he decided to save money and not get it fixed through insurance. Think about it... if he had reported it to the police, they surely would have investigated his claims, including the accident (that may have been his fault, which would be a reason for someone not wanting the insurance to know), which may have led to a whole bunch of new problems for Paul. Just because someone gets taken for a ride, doesn't mean they're fully innocent. ;-)

It seems they are running a shady operation (criminal) and are probably doing it again to another paying customer who may never know the difference. Maybe someone's vulnerable parents etc. They're driving around uninsured having taken your car without your consent. A criminal offence. If they had a crash I bet they would probably flee the scene. They need to be dealt with officially to dissuade them from doing it again. It's the best way to disrupt them... Not a video for a few likes and follows! I sincerely hope that this has been reported.

Don’t think I would have paid them with brass washers Paul 👊👊

You are too kind. I would have revealed these people and never do business again. The damaged wheel is because they drove it. The cost of that wheel probably would have reduced the amount I would have given because they joyride in my vehicle instead of working on it. Car sales have made you quite a bit of money is why you paid them what you did. If you think about it they did good work and then took advantage of your kindness and generosity with pricing. Kudos!

You would make a great politician, diplomat, advisor etc., etc. In a court of law, those rogues would be paying you compensation for sure. I take my hat off to you sir!
