take the car back to the garage and ask them what there going to do about it before you loose your temper , they have liability insurance to cover these types of problems , make sure your insurance are also aware of the problem , if no joy with the manager ask for the owners name and then inform trading standards what has happend to your car whilst in there care you do have rights for a civil court case if you still have no joy , also mention speaking to your local paper if they are not going to help as bad publicity is the last thing any decent garage wants , personaly i would go back in the dark and wait for the mot tester to come out and kick him so hard in the bol***ks :crazyeyes: that he would have to lumps around his neck .

hope you get it sorted with out to many probs buddy :thumbleft:

My advice to anyone.....regardless if you know anything about cars or not ......is to always stay and observe whilst an MOT is being carried out on your car.

 

A couple of years ago an MOT'er almost drove my Nissan off the ramp whilst it was still in the air....if i hadn't been there to scream at him to stop.....he got a little confused coz it has an Auto box .....or so he said.

I dont think all garages have liability insurance - Quite often there are signs in garages saying something like 'vehicles left here at owners risk' etc..

 

But glad to here it was all fixed :)

Did they explain WHY they were trying to break in that way? Obviously they were crap car thieves as well......
