I'm one of those who always say how reliable the cars I had as company cars were.
Well in fact they were under warranty and I always got a loaner if they went in for anything so I got to thinking:
A ford needed a new door trim - it never arrived.
Audi - new seat cover, leather took a while about 800 quid
Merc - clock in dash ran fast, cure? New dash over a grand
Merc - new headlamp washer - 200 quid
Dealers - Mercedes just serviced the car didn't mention that the rear tyres we completely bald, in fact a bit of wood went through and caused a puncture.
Mercedes again - two front tyres through to the wires - not mentioned
Vauxhall - delivered a manual when auto ordered.
Vauxhall again - tried multiple times to fix air con, never fixed during cars lifetime.
Im sure there is other stuff but all those cars got swapped at 80k that's about the mileage I get a Range Rover.
Anyway - just saying
Oh and none of them could go where my Rangie can and they were all boring. Geoff
