Service Plan issue

Penelopa.Pitstop

Fiat and Audi collect and drops off cars for free and you don't have to buy pre-paid plan. I'm glad, I'm out of Merc, since service close by is closing down.
I would complain to Ford and I guess, you have to find someone who can take the car for service.

We've had this sort of discussion before. Yes the Fiesta will do exactly the same job as an S Class. If the Mercedes has been bought with some sort of discount that can be called 'money saving' apparently.

You are joking me?? An "S class does the same job as a Fiesta," - seriously???
Can it carry 5 people all over 6 foot  and 6 suticases - no it can't and you already knew that.
Anyway, our money, our choice and people, majority aspire to nice cars and many are just left with dreams and we are lucky to have them and many times even now look at them and thing, is that ours!!

Importantly, we see our S Class and Range Rover as an extension of our humble abode.
Btw, before I go and have lunch, you remind of the little lady at my office years ago - she had one of those very old, little corsa and she was a bit spiteful (not saying you are) and withour me saying anyhting sh'ed always make crass comments about my nice car even without me saying anyhtiny - one day out of the blue she asked me if I would park my car on this very troblesome coucil estate - I was honest and I would but be very careful as laways and she ranted i "just park my car" - guess waht she got a newr corsa nothing special and she was not in the office and her car was by the entrace to the office and i asked where she was - she was out left her car at the office - shed walked the mile and half and back - i politley challenged her and she was really shameless about it and said "i'm not taking my new car there," I burst out lol and then I told her reminded her and every lol.

Ther si nothing wrong mate with buying your own nice big cars with cash if that is waht you want to do and don't forget, A "fiesta" does not do what an S class do and I've just given you one exmaple

No but a Ford Mondeo that costs just a third of the price can.

You could do them a favour and take it in for them.

Make sure the insurance is in place though!

‘She got a new corsa, nothing special’ - to her this might have been special, she might have saved and saved to get this, it’s all relevant, just because having a merc, a Range Rover and whatever else you have is special to you, doesn’t mean you have the right to look down on anyone else’s vehicles. I would have 100% more respect for someone who had saved their money and bought a £500 fiesta than someone who has a brand new, flash prestige vehicle which they’ve financed, because they could never afford to buy it out right (not saying this is what you do, before you jump on that, but you may well do, so who knows). 

And before you start thinking I must be one of these bitter people who can’t afford the nice things in life, that is not the case at all, as it’s very much the opposite, however I don’t feel the need to drop into what seems like every post is commented on, exactly what cars are sat on my driveway.

yes it’s a motoring forum, no it isn’t a place to show off.

Exactly what I said but a bit more to that and caution advised. Remember most a TPFT unless you are the named driver on the other car.

Could you please try and make coherent statements?  Thank you.

Also the most important thing about knowledge is acknowledging what you don't know.  Try it some time.  You're welcome.

The statement by sand is snobbery based on imagination as far as we can tell.  I think we need a custard test.

You may be posting with good intentions but the impression is of an ill informed snob.
