Default do performance workshops get busy at tax refund time?

As per the title.

Is anyone else like me and waiting for tax refund time to do some stuff to the car?

Surely there is more money to be spent on toys in July/August for other people too?

Do shops get more traffic as people spend their refund money?

Love to hear from the guys on here who earn a living working on cars

Yup.....Before tax time, businesses spend up to get rid of money, so the gov't has less to take....Consumers spend when they get their tax cheque back....

Personally I think it's a PITA, because everyone wants things done there and then...Can't wait a week or so...Makes life hell

Waiting on tax back to get a turbo back exhaust and a remap done on my Focus.

We hit a really busy period just before new financial year because government departments tend to spend the rest of their allocated money so they come to us to build their emergency vehicles.
