Copped a flat between
Nullagine and Neuman and found my spare was flat and 2nd spare was very 2nd hand. In the morning I got a new bridgestone V steel and got a repair done.
Cost $380. $310 for the v steel and get this $70 for a pun cture repair!! When I questioned this he said he actually gave me a few bux off. Might have been a work vehicle but i was still left shaking my head.
Might actually start doing those pesky vehicle prestart checks also

Albeit a bit late, but there shouldn’t be any issues in asking for a "detailed" quote before any work is carried out - then if you’re not happy with the $$$, ask to justify the costings - as in parts and labour
breakdown – that way it won’t be as much of a shock.
You might be caught between a
rock and a hard place if they're the only repairers in the area though.
