Smash Repairs

Hi all

I am in the UK and I have had my car repair a few months ago and after the repairs were complete I had a lot of money problems and therefore unable to pay for the repairs on my car.

At the moment the mechanic ‘holding’ the car until I pay but he has said that he will sell it to make back the costs. What can I do and is he able to sale my car without my consent?

Thanks in advance.

I know something about car repair and want to start doing minor things at home. A friend said I can go to Wal-Mart and get a set of Stanley auto tools. Are they adequate, or do I need Craftsman, Snap-On or Mac Tools? Your answers are appreciated!
