I make my living with my taxi. 3 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $550. 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $550 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $110
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $210
• Labor charges: $230
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Guarulhos so I could bring a meal. Love from Phuket.
