Had a shock today.
I ordered a new set of 12 plated wheel nuts for my 1991 4TL as they are letting the car down. Rest of the car is mint.
This was from my local Renault dealer.
They are the type with the hole in either end.
I went to pick them up expecting a bill of about £30.
This estimate was on the basis of a set of Defender wheel nuts (big heavy things, 23 in total) being £50.
Shocked to find that with the "discount" they were £101.
If it wasn't for the fact the rest of the car merits them. I would have walked away. I bought them.
Thanks Renault. Should have asked the price first. What a pillock.
