Sixten needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Södertälje
Without my school-run minibus Sixten can't work; a $850 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 7 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $850. 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 three 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 $850 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $410
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $310
• Towing and inspection: $130
Thanks for reading all this.
