This woman said she had a flat battery. Got some retired mechanic to replace it and carried on. Then not long after her motor was "cooked" so the engine needed replacement.

The retired mechanic loaned her an E series so she could continue her trip to SA and his good Samaritan gesture made the news.

Does this sound odd to anyone else?

He probably thought he could score an upgrade in cars/a root for doing it

She can't afford a motel room for the night but she can afford a new engine?

$10 said old mate lent her the car hoping for sexual favours in return. I would do the same at his age, what a champ :)

So he "replaced the battery" and then the engine over cooks 40km later. Sounds like he did something else besides "fix" it...

I reckon he ignored the missing fan belt.

Fan belt breaks. Water pump stops. Battery goes dead.

New battery = car running long enough for it to "cook".

Hahaa, yeh, probably disconnected the thermos... Like Sundeep said, should have done some 'WOLF CREEK' action on her ass.

He let her borrow his EA....what's the big fkn deal?

If he let her borrow a Lambo I'd understand. Giving her the EA was probably a relief off his shoulders.

Yeah they're definittely more willing to help out a stranger, but that's pretty extreme. Maybe he had more than one car or is really lonely (or horny - they eventually run in parallel).

That Mechanic has been in Beaufort for since I can remember his building is in the VACC add and him and his Brother or Best Mate IIRC run in several Bash Events on a yearly basis.

I think after 50+ years a small community like Beaufort would soon work out if he was dodgy or not.

You are 100% retarded I reckon. You never have any clue about anything because you always miss the jokes, or don't read what's written and miss the point or reply with something completely left field off on a tangent spec.

Come to my Toyota dealership and I'll kick your ass and give you $100 for the trouble.

Ranga much?

P.S I didn't "bite" you downey, you did. I revived an old joke which you didn't get, and you said "get fukked".. if that's not biting I'm not sure what is.

If he was a mechanic he would have known what was going to happen? Sounds like wolf creek stuff Sunny. Altho country people are generally laid back and nice like that, well the guys I know anyway. Creepy old man + female.....
