I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $600. 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 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $600 goes: • Towing and inspection: $115 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $190 • Labor charges: $295 Thank you for reading my story.
