My wreck of a car died on me last Friday, and it's been in for repair for a week. So yesterday I went to pick it up, to the tune of NOK 3800 (appx $600). I had gone less than five minutes when the fucker started sputtering like a liberal faced with facts and shaking like Elvis with a ferret in his pants.
I promptly turned back to the garage, where a snottyfaced youngster claimed everything should be in order, 'cause he'd checked it himself the day before. Grudgingly he came with me on a test drive, and to my great pleasure the car almost died on him as soon as we started going uphill. He was quite apologetic when we got back. You'd think even in this shitty country, you'd get something for $600, even at a garage?
