    So you picked up there property without asking and wondered why they asked you about it?

    Have you got some kind of anti-consumer fetish? Do you get off on bad or non-existant service? I don't know what else to say without being insulting and thats against forum rules.
  • I just had to share this!
    .......I was so thrown by him that I just left. And drove straight up the road to VW and bought myself a nice new top of the range Golf instead :D

    Well done. Car dealers and salesman are dodgy at the best of times. I have been known to leave the showroom myself in the middle of signing a contract for a car if the salesman starts to annoy me for whatever reason - and they often do. Enjoy your Golf.

    I think the problem is a lot of main dealers think they are god like and bigger than the cars themselves.

    Send an email to the company and describe the twit hopefully he will be sacked and someone who knows how to sell will get his job.

    I wouldn't buy a car in the wet, but I've been out in the rain at dealers to scout for available models and the prices. I write them down, go home and research and go back to look in the dry.

    That would be a Kia with a 7 year warranty, as opposed to the VW warranty of ???

    Don't you own a Honda?

    What sort of warranty do they offer?

    Of course reliability outside the warranty period is what's really important and it's here that Japanese cars tend to do well.
