Irmak needs my tuk-tuk repaired to get back to work in Konya
Irmak drives for a living in Konya, and a broken transmission has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 4 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $350 goes:
• Labor charges: $80
• transmission replacement (parts): $230
• Towing and inspection: $40
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
