Car woes

We have yet to drive our own vehicle while in Costa Rica. It's had one thing after another fixed and now it seems to be in the final stage. But....After unreasonable promises of a new car part delivered in 1-2 days, we were proved right. It's been 6 days. Not bad by local standards. But considering that the paperwork was delivered and signed for today, it seems unreasonable even by locals that we still must wait 1-2 days for actual delivery of the product. A visit to the warehouse with the aforementioned signed paperwork let us know that in order to pick up the product we needed an authorization--notarized by a lawyer--that we can pick it up. We'll let you know...
