Oh, it'll be much worse than that....

The BEST I've ever got was a diesel 206.

Well it's their fcuk up, and they've just phoned to tell me.

So I'm rather hoping it's the blue 111R in the window...

Though I doubt it.

I got some Suzuki Swift Gti?? action before i got a second car - a hot hatch apparently! Hate to see what they think a tepid hatch is!

Oh, and it had vapours in the tank! Nearly ran out before the Shell, and I'm not at all nervous normally in this regard, as my 41.79 litre fill up record will show

Last time I was there was given the pleasure of driving their Suzuki Ingis thingy. Guy warned me that it had just had a valet and the tires could be slippy....nearly pissed my self laughing but it dome the job. Always seams odd to me that when you spend a wedge on a car, the courtesy car is so crap.
I wonder what the Aston customers get....

They dont have to drive the car to the dealer. The dealer sends a covered van round to pick it up and drop it off. If they need a curtsy car, the get a new rental merc or something similar dropped off at the door... was talking to a nice Astom Martin driving type bloke when I was waiting at reception, he had just popped in for a chat in the showroom.

I think thats the difference between 10-30K and 100-150K
