Car mats and a full tank, nothing more, nothing less should be expected from a dealership

From memory, I've bought some eleven or twelve new cars and I can't remember not getting a full tank ever!

Full tank, but only because of slight delay with delivery.
Blimey, looking back now it seems like a slight delay but at the time it seemed like it took ages... oh well.

You are entitled to a full tank of fuel - You HAVE paid for it.

From the current price list.

On The Road Price includes
Delivery, number plates and a full tank of fuel. £600

Mine was full to the brim, with only 5 miles on the clock. I also had some free mats thrown in.

As has already been said, nothing less than a full tank should be expected with a new car, plus I think we are paying for it as part of the "delivery" charge.

I got 280 miles from my "free" tank (though I did fill up with about 20 miles left) bet some of you denzil pilots got 100 miles more...

Only 1/2 tank but it was an ex-demo car so i was expecting the fuel light on...

Last car was imported 206CC and came with fumes only due to limits during transportation...

Only 2 litres in the tank, but it's normal here (Croatia). Also no car mats.

And strangely, my had exactly 15 miles (24 kilometers) too...

*cough* 467 *cough*


Trekker - it turned up on the back of a transporter too...
Although bizzarely, the only 'previous address' in the Sat Nav was mine...

I think that they had someone in the car shouting directions to the van driver

Lol! I thought one of you diesel jockeys would make my figure look pretty dire!

In my defence I must admit to testing the acceleration a few times.

The full tank is standard on all new honda's. unless they come through a leaseing company.

The delivery charge has included a full tank for a good while, however, the amount that the dealers are paid for the full tank has never risen.

Its still a nice suprise for some people though
