When it came to colour, I simply said "anything but white, suprise me". And I got the Navy Blue, which was good, 'cause lookin' back that's probably what I wanted the most.

But yeah, at Ford, the guy who sold me the car came out of the office & said "G'Day mate, my name is Con, if you need to ask anything or need some help, I'm just over here". Gave me as much time as I wanted to look around, then when I was ready, I did the deal. Awesome.

With an experience like that, when I'm ready to update in a few years, I'll go straight back to him.
HAHA - he sold me my car! Worst after sales experience I had ever experienced. If you search for it; it is all explained numerous times on the forum. First he promised a car he couldn't get - then when he managed to get the car; he Delivered it with the wrong plates (premium, not euro plates), no 16 inch optional rims and no tint. I was not impressed.

He was great though up till then - really liked him whilst he sold the car.

Oh - also forgot to mention the Rims came with Falkens... not the Continentials they should have come with.

So, essentially he was great till he got our money - In hindsight I should have gone to Jubilee Ford... really liking a few of the guys there. Good bunch, and I've had a few chats with them about the Fiesta and other cars too. Even seen them out when I was wasted... which was hilarious.

Anyway, I'm glad that Con may have changed. I guess you learn from your mistakes!

Although not a Ford - Rick Damelian Renault (John) sold me the Clio Sport on sunday for a bargain price and good trade-in... and delivered the car on Thursday polished and looking very shiny. Great service and I'm sure I'll go back when the Clio Sport 197 is out!
