Needed a couple of new tyres yesterday so like anyone with half a brain i decided to ring around for a few prices.
First i rang a local independant tyre dealer who quoted me £164 +vat.
Then i rang a second independant who quoted me £160 all in.
Then i rang Kwikfit who quoted me £215 + vat !!!!
" £215 + vat ? is that the best you can do ?"
"Yes sir, im making nothing at that price, no margin at all. Do you want to come in and we will get them fitted ?"
"erm, na. I'm going to ring around for a better price"
" OK sir, if you find a better price give me a ring and i will beat it"
WTF !!!!!!?????????
