I’m a car mechanic and I’m sick of working on filthy cars – would you tolerate working in these conditions?
A MECHANIC has taken to TikTok to show his frustration at the absolute state a car has been left in.
The video shows a customer’s Peugeot which has been dropped off for work.
The video was uploaded by mechanic @Kyleellis127 from Kyle’s Corner Automotive in Sutton in Ashfield.
He begins by saying: “Alright guys, this is really getting on my t*** now.

“Customer’s Peugeot in, for a knocking noise,
“Never in my life have a wished I had smell-o-vision. It is just ridiculous. It stinks. Awful.”
Using his smartphone, the mechanic pans around the inside of the car to show the state it’s in.
The driver’s door pocket is full of junk and the driver’s floor mat is covered in dirt, grime and old wrappers.
The passenger’s door pocket is also full and the footwell on that is similarly dirty with two discarded bottles.
The camera then moves to the rear footwells, which have a hilarious amount of junk piled up in them.
The rear seats are stained and dirty, with old clothes and plates littered across them.
The mechanic continues: “And we’re supposed to work in this?
“Would anybody else tolerate it? No. Would they hell. Yet we’re supposed to.
“Stupid. And to top it off, 7,000 miles over service and has no damn fuel in it.
“I mean, how do people live like this?”
People couldn’t believe the state of the car in the comments and were quick to give their opinion.
One said: “The knocking noise was probs all that junk flying about in the back.”
Another said: “If the car looks like that then what does the house look like?”
But others were worried about the car’s owner, with one saying: “He or she is clearly living in this car.
“It’s what it has come to for some. Cost of living etc.”
While another said: “These comments! 7k overdue and no fuel, don’t you think they might maybe just be struggling a little and now they’re been shamed on TikTok!
“You never know someone’s story a little compassion can go a long way.”
