Delivery time Fifth time's a charm!

eighteentee · 1st October 2007, 15:11

Howdy folks,

Just got off the phone with my local dealer about where my new Civic 2.2ES *is* exactly, after being given the runaround for the past week. I've been told it's 'on it's way', 'been delivered to another branch' and today 'it's on its way' again! What level of incompetence is this!

I'm wondering about trying to get some freebies on account of being pi55ed about so much. I honestly have never come across this before when buying a new motor.

I think a wheel upgrade to 17in would be a good start, don't you?

Make a bit of an outrageous demand (18" storms) then work your way down to 17" :P

Seems very odd, sounds like there's a dispute over who the car was ordered for?! Maybe??

Yeah - the 17" Pentas if you can't get the storms...or maybe parking sensors if you've not already spec'ed these...

How much and what sort of noise should I make?

I think some kind of roar is in order (though not of the mating variety), if possible jump up on to the roof of a car and do it.
