Car broke down in the middle of the road =[

I have long suspected that my car was having problems and I was delaying the service. The most notable reason would be to prepare for CNY. The week before, my car did stall in the middle of the road and thankfully there was no car behind me at that time. It managed to start again but I just let it be again thinking that I would do my service this week.

I was heading to Sunway Lagoon for an event and fortunately/unfornately my car stalled permanently just before Guinness Ancher Berhad factory. Since I am not too into cars so I cannot really comprehend what went wrong but I did suspect the battery is flat because my car alarm went cuckoo.

I managed to get a foreman to come check out the problem and at the same time called for my insurance's auto assist for towing services. Initially I thought I would just send it back to my place and get a mechanic which I went to before to hopefully fix it but not really knowing if the shop is still open. When the foreman came, he said he could fix it at his shop in Shah Alam so I asked the tow truck to send it to his place.

It was hard to find because its NOT really a workshop for normal cars! It was a workshop for expensive cars namely Rolls Royce. Before he got down to do his work, he showed me around his place knowing quite well that not many people would drop by not to mention want/going to hang around this place. I was quite awestruck by his collection of cars. I think there were around 10 Rolls Royces, a couple of old Mercedes and some beat up Cadillacs. These are the cars which on TV shows, those people who are into these cars would drool all over the place for.

One would normally see this car used for weddings
I wonder how it feels like to drive it
The steering is not really that well maintained
The signal is not on, my flash must be too great
I wonder why the owner does not paint it metallic
The hats shows that this car is really only used for leisure
Nice plates btw
More RRs collecting dust
New plates on old car
Different part manufacturers
Not too shabby insides
The famous logo
The owner claims that Dr M used this
Very old plates
Most likely these guys only go out on parade a few times per year
More familiar models which we see in HK movies/dramas
Better looking colors IMHO
Another good shade, 2 toned
