JCMF: Correct.
Rob_RA40: Correct.
Phone rings at workshop.
High school kid: "Hi, I know you're booked out with work for 1 month in advance, but I want you to take an afternoon out of the shop to come and do a quote for fixing my Ay-Eee-Aight-Six Sprinter please."
Workshop guy: <<Looks at full workshop of cars on which he can earn $200/hour>> <<Looks outside at another tow truck arrive with new job for quoting at his door>>
Workshop guy: <<hangs up phone, laughs hard, goes tells his boys, everyone laughs hard, makes toss-toss and cock-sucking motions and goes back to work making $100/hr in the shop>>
Seriously, there are so many young guys out there calling speed shops tossing off about buying stuff they actually can't afford or (even more tragic) hanging out on a Toyota web forum asking for pics or everything which is for sale to do with a Sprinter with no intention to buy. You could call those people MrF_ools or something I guess.
1 day car trailer hire = $50. Tow it yourself. Take it to as many shops as you can in that day, like start at seriously 8am. Dump it at the best shop you've found by 4pm.
Until you rock up at the shop with the car for real and money in your hand you're just another tosser to the panel beater, you've got to make the effort to prove differently. Do you really expect him to run around, forgo earning money to see a car which he may not be able to take on or you may not decide to give to him? Do you expect him to service your tool too?
