If thats the fat guy (shockingly rude scouser if I remember rightly) then I wouldn't trust him to fill up the screen wash!

There's a shockingly rude and aggressive tattoo'd fat scouser involved in kids football in Dubai. He got all 'come on then' with a German dad who made a passing comment at a tourny at the 7evens last year...quite disgraceful...and then his Mrs chirped up - she was worse...they were having a right go at the ref as well meanwhile a load of 8 year old kids just looked on bemused.

I used to take my Beast there.... and as it's a Wrongler a) it's simple to work on and b) mega easy to get parts for. You go online and the parts will be despatched the same day from the US. It was in for a suspension lift and 5 new wheels and tyres along with changing the diff ratios (to suit the wheels). After they had kept it for 8 weeks and still hadn't managed to get the right parts I took it back off them and had it done elsewhere (at Offroad zone - where they f**ked it up as well but that's another story). Other work Icon have done for me (fit some spot lights) was massively amateurish and I had to have it done all again. Honestly, I wouldn't trust them with a toy car!

As for the rudeness, I was in there one day and he was swearing left and right - f**k this and ***** that.

That's no way to run a business. Hugely unprofessional.

I know several others who have been in there and had dramas too.
