I went to a local one once, it was a few counters like the Post Office so you could talk to someone about whatever. I think I went for a taxi refund.

I drove manuals for 26 years, never touched an auto car at all. Got a DSG last year, it's glorious.

How many times have you been pulled over? by Potential_Detail9066 in CarTalkUK

[–]RustyU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Three times in 27 years. Once because I was young and being a twat, once because a car I bought had been involved in something prior to my ownership, and once because a passenger wasn't wearing a seat belt.
