Xspeed

[ossie_21]

Anything sent international should be sent with tracking numbers, I haven't sent anything overseas but everything I have had sent came with them. Mostly car parts too, so as a business they should be sending it traceable as well. Its not like it's costing them money, you would take that extra cost. And if you're like me, I'd believe you wouldn't mind paying an extra $30-50 or whatever for knowing just where a couple of grand worth of parts are

This is one of the reasons WA is more prone to doing the work yourself.

Just tight ass owners

I charge not even half that and apparently i'm still expensive

LOL shit mates you have

LOL shit mates you have

$120/hr is the going rate nowdays, there are a few stealerships down here charging $140/hr. I charge not even half that and apparently i'm still expensive

f**kin hate that. Guy purchased a clutch off ebay cos he didnt want me to supply one, it didnt fit so the car tied up the hoist for 4days waiting for a return from Victoria. He couldnt see why i charged him the 4 days for the car sitting there

I think you hit the nail on the head with that one. So many people can't understand the costs incurred by a business through having it using up equipment that could have been used on other jobs.

Well we charge $132/hr ($120+ GST). Compared to the "stealerships" we are quite reasonably priced considering the types of cars we work on; places like the Audi Centre, Westpoint Star and Lexus of Perth all charge close to $200/hr from what I understand.

I charge $132 per.hour at my 'Stealership' as you all lovingly call it lol

Paul, when was the service you paid 500? Not since I was there I'd hope?

Especially in a 1 man operation where i depend on the hoist on my days off. Cost me a few cancelled jobs that i may or may not get back

But I'm guessing he didn't see it that way ?

I charge $250 a day for it sitting on hoist ,Only had to charge twice .

1st time was auto one supplying owner with wrong clutch for a terrano ( 3days ) and 2nd was owner purchased camry clutch from coventrys ( 1 day ) Best part was on both jobs we were alot cheaper on the part so that makes me smile even more

So if it stays on the hoist a week do I own the hoist ?

good one Corey

[thychiz]

To be totally honest, one dealing with Xspeed was enough for me, They basically gave me half arsed information, and a lot of "CBF" attitude. They are on my permanent "no go" list

[Passive]

I've had a lot of dealings with Xspeed and never really had any issues. My mate also has had his car in there for awhile getting things done to it. I don't think he's had any issues either.

[turboedsloth]

good one Corey

Wasn't me i'm never wrong. Apart from that 1 time where i thought i could have been wrong, but i wasn't so i was still right
