Is it just me?
Put the captiva in this am for some long awaited warranty work, namely replace both leaking front struts, replace the front bowtie badge as it's got something black and revolting growing in it, replace the faulty reversing sensor it's now been in 3 times with, possibly replace the 2 rear wheels re corrosion and repaint the hatch for the ubiquitous rust issue, as well as taking out a very small dent in the hatch also. The service chap then tells me I'll have the Vauxhall Corsa "not-much-of-a-courtesy" car for TWO WEEKS! Now, I'm not an unreasonable man, but I reckon working at home on the drive I could do all of the mechanical bits in a day and the prep and paint taking another day or two at the outside, how on earth does that amount to 2 weeks? I'd love to see them do an F1 pit stop, probably take 4 hours!
It's not often I get baffled, but this one has me beat!
