Default Ha ha, I can stick it to my old dealer now

I did some work on an LR3 for a used car guy at my new shop and someone suggested I open myself to working on land rovers since no one in the shop doesn't want to work on them. I can stick it to the same guys who screwed me. Sweet. Oh and by the way I left the LR dealer and work for some other guy. I used to work for the LR dealer in Albany, NY. Not anymore. Oh and Atlantic british is only twenty minutes away from me.

I am still here, just moved in a different shop, different apartment and my Rover got totalled a month ago when a 17 year old girl in a honda civic pulled out in front of me without looking. I knew if I braked I would have killed her. But swerved just enough to put the strut thru the motor and miss the cabin. Got a ford focus wagon so its a decent substitute. Plus the gas mileage doesnt hurt but I am getting another rover. No questions asked.

Needless to say my new place I work isn't into raping customers on parts. And its a dealer. I know because when I quoted for a price of coolant the PM called it rape.

Glad you are sticking around.
That sucks about your Rover and that AB is only 20 min away.
You can get all of your parts from them, mark them up a modest 5-10% and BAM!! Still cheaper than the stealer.
