My taxi: Angel's only way to earn a living
Angel's my taxi is Angel's only source of income and needs a clutch assembly replacement costing $250.
🇵🇭 Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines1,681 views
I make my living with my taxi. 4 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $250 goes:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $150
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $5
If you're reading this, thank you.

Hope things get better soon, Angel. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Makati.
