Went to Penzance last Tuesday as wife had a week off, when we came back to the car i saw oil under the car and there was oil leaking from the rear of engine, topped it up and got to Halfords so i could get some more oil, then decided to call the RAC, who told me a patrol may take up to three hours this was 1pm, the patrol got to us at 4pm, and it was decided to recover us home, after a few more calls to the RAC in the evening the last one about 11pm they suggested i put the car keys on a tyre and make our way home which is 65 miles away, the recovery firm is based near St Austell no more than one hour away from Penzance they also have a outpost at Redruth and Newquay as well but it took them until 12.45 to get to us we got home 3.30am Wednesday, the wife has sent a very long letter to the RAC am waiting for there reply, When i got the car over the pit it was the return pipe from the turbo that had come loose, all sorted now and looking for a better recovery firm this is the first time in 25 years i have had to call for help.
