Dealer muppets

Hi all,I'm beginning to get a little fed up with some of the dealers' comments oncar faults. You know, the "they all do that" type stuff which comes up whenthe dealer can't be bothered to work something out and just wants to get thecustomer out the door.Robert's post about the dealer telling him that the 300Tdi will never warmup properly in UK climate as it's designed for desert use is a fine example.So, I'm going to set up a "name and embarrass" web page for this sort ofthing. It will NOT be a place to slag off dealers, make biased accusations,etc. It will simply be a place where you can see what lame comments dealershave come up with. The object being to cause them light embarrassment whichshould hopefully start to make them think twice before coming up withdumbass comments. I'll happily balance this with comments from the dealersif they want me to.Any contributors? I'd like dealer name, + the comment they made,paraphrased if necessary. Please note, all submissions will be attributedto the originator, to cover my ass. So don't be libellous. I will edit outanything I think could cause problems.Thanks.David

Neil, could you quote a bit from the previous post, when you reply, for the benefit of those of us who "Hide Read Messages"? I keep having to dredge my memory to remember what comment you've replied to!

Rather like when Abby makes some random comment about a conversation we had several hours ago, and I sit there like a deer in the headlights.

Thanks! David.
