Getting the car serviced

The photo shows the lounge area of the motor home. I don’t have a photo of it extended out yet but one day soon. Moving on .... When we moved from a small country property to suburbia, we had to find a new dentist, doctor, mechanic, chemist – the list went on and on. Most we found by word-of-mouth and we’ve been very happy with the recommendations. A few of the people in our village are still working. One is a mechanic and we were told that he would drive your car to his place of work where it would be serviced or whatever then he’d deliver it back when he finished for the day. We found the business to be very good and of course it was really convenient having the vehicle picked up and delivered. We thought we might have hit a problem when we couldn’t be here when the car was due to be returned. It was no problem. Bobby used the fob key to open the garage door. He parked the car, left the keys in a conspicuous place, hit the button to activate the garage door and ducked out before he was trapped inside. You can’t ask for more than that, can you?

@judyev Comfortable looking lounge. And yes, that is a rather convenient system for getting the car back. A bit like our Amazon deliverers who don’t bother to knock but just plod on in and hand us our parcels.

@JudyEv I really don’t have anything worth stealing.

Obviously you don't lock your doors. Most people here do.

So how was Bob able to come out? Did you had to do something from your side? The Lounge looks fine. Do the Servicing Folks take a lot of amount as Labor charges? When I get my annual car servicing done, some of the fixed charges can be quite a lot. However, I am fine with that since I feel that ultimately it is Car's performance and longevity that matters.

Do you mean come out from the garage? There is a remote control button in the car which opens the garage roller door as you approach it. Once you're inside the garage, you can push the same button or push a button on the wall. The door starts to close and Bob just has to run out quickly. We can go through a small door from the garage into the house. Most of the mechanic shops charge much the same. If you get good service then you tend to stick to that one.

The only thing better would be if he washed and waxed it!

They did vacuum it so that was a bit of a bonus.

We've been lucky for sure. We have a great doctor too and the chemist is very obliging and helps us keep track of all our pills.

It's handy not to have to drive to the service place then hang around while it gets done.

Wow it looks roomy even the way it is. Wow that garage really does sound great. We don’t have anyone around here that offers services quite like that.

I know at least three other people in the village that get their car serviced at the same place.

The lounge is very comfortable. I'm sure we'll enjoy a few games of cards there.
