A mother was left perplexed after mechanics at Kwik Fit quoted her £360 to fix a tyre with a slow puncture. She believes it was an effort to take advantage of the fact that she's a woman and overcharge her for a job that later cost £11.65 at an independent garage.

When 32-year-old teacher Susie Henderson noticed that the front driver's side tyre on her Renault Clio was leaking air, she took the vehicle to her local Kwik Fit garage in Milngavie, Glasgow.
