I am registered for VAT and i rang the mechanic for a VAT no. but then he says this was a cash price and refused to give me one. He did say that he could do anther invoice and charge me VAT on what he already has charged me. On no occasion was i told this before and if i had known he was like this i would have avoided him, altho the car broke down and he was the nearest garage and fixed the car promptly altho he did say the initial cost was going to be 2 -300 euros and the price ended up being 500. I know i should have said not to do anything until i get a full/proper quote but i just wanted the car fixed quickly.
