Recently picked up a 2007 7 seat Seat for my lad from a workmate that I know needed some welding as he’d been quoted a grand to repair it.
Didn’t look THAT bad but you know how it is, by the time you’ve found clean metal, the repair is a damn sight bigger than first thought.
Then, once I got the plastic cover sills off it became apparent that a paying customer would be getting another £500 thrown on top of the estimate!
Anyway, my lad has started training at a garage and the guy (my usual mechanic) let us use the scissor lift so it’s a fair bit better than lying on your back to get it done.
Front NS.
…and jacking point!
