New car.......

Post by Edin430 » Tue Sep 04, 2007 5:27 pm

So i went and got my blue elise traded in for a newer silver one... Another sports tourer - this one has black leather with air con though....

Has air con been a big problem for people? I know there have been a few posts about it and its worrying me slightly!! :?

Should be here in around 2 weeks (soon as my plate gets transfered over) so i will post some pics up then..!

Turned out my other one was well and trully gubbed :cry:

That is a cracking result ... it's rare for dealers to fess up that they sold you a lemon/screwed your car beyond reasonable repair and then to come good with a replacement vehicle.

They are to be applauded.

Cheers,

unless as happens sometime in the motor trade you secure a new car sale, by calling said part exchange a lemon!! :P

Not that i would/have ever done that to secure a sale...

Yeah i got a phone call to say they were sorry - although if id accept it they found me a newer car - less miles - with A/C but its silver - and i could keep the hard top as compensation...

Cant say its anything apart from a top deal...!!
