My tuk-tuk: Fernanda's only way to earn a living
Without my tuk-tuk Fernanda can't work; a $350 repair would put her back on the road.

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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $350 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $190
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $75
• Towing and inspection: $30

Wishing you peace, Fernanda. Hope the shop reopens soon. Love from Moscow.
Best of luck. Hope you make a strong comeback. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
