It's here at last

After a week full of stress from the dealer I've finally collected my car today. They were very insistent that if the car was here before the end of the month then I should collect it, they even charged me £6.00 for the privilege of not loosing a months tax. The only thing I've been given is a poxy umbrella. I even left it in the salesmans office and he rushed back to give it to me. They charged me £10 for a plate for my bike rack and there was just enough fuel to get to the garage.

I don't think they'll be servicing it.

Looks the biz though

Very smart indeed. Perhaps you need to remind them of the Landrover Handover Handbook re the fuel. That is a discrace about the £6 Mad I know what I would have said.........

Pleased you got the Evoque shame about the dealer but you're right just go elsewhere for the service! They will never learn with customer service will they ..........

Had a Pure TD4, Fuji White - now have Dynamic SD4, Fuji White 9 Speed auto with Verve Interior - let the new project begin!

End of month and end of quarter bonuses must be due and he was under target so you had to take it just for him/ the dealership to get their brownie points from LR!

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Car looks brilliant.

As a fellow midlander perhaps you could enlighten me on which dealer to avoid when I get my car from London next weekend.

Cheers

Sadly an all too familiar story on the dealer front, yes there are good ones, but they all should be good.

Was the £6 for the 12 months +1 week RFL, in which case not so bad.

Servicing, look elsewhere and shop around for service plan deals, many of us have and made savings.

Congrats on your acquisition by the way.

Evoque No3: MY15 Dynamic Lux SD4, Auto, Santorini Black, Pimento Dynamic Plus Sports Seats, Ebony headlining, Pan Roof, Shadow Chrome Alloys.

Congratulations, car looks really smart. Shame your dealer spolit the experience, many horror stories on hear, including my own. Ensure you give the dealer poor ratings when you get your feedback form. I did and the DP rang me to discuss the points.

Now Sold: 5dr Pure SD4 Man / Fuji White / Pano Roof / Tech Park / Style 6 Alloys / Privacy Glass / Xenons / Black H'lining / Power Fold Door Mirrors / Power Tailgate / Carpet Mats / Front Fogs.
