Dealer sticker

Obo · 12th April 2007, 21:51

I saw a red civic the other day with a dealer sticker slap bang in the centre of the lower back window is this the most retarded place for a dealer sticker to be surely it completely obscures the view out of the back... now had it been a civinfo sticker it might have been a different matter.

Obviously I dont have my civic yet but when I test drove one it didnt have a sticker from the dealer that I remember but I know for a fact it wasnt on the bottom bit, is this a common place or is my local dealer just a bit thick(note : I had to go to Bristol as local was about as useful as a chocolate teapot)

Regardless of location I always remove the dealer sticker on a car immediately anyway so it's not an issue it just made me chuckle!

I bought a new car many years ago and specified that I did NOT want the dealer's plastic badge (Currie Motors) stuck to the paintwork.

When I collected the car - there it was. I made the salesman remove it - he was very nervous, but it came off without damaging the paintwork.

Ours is stuck at the top of the glass rear window, and is already beginnning to peel itself off! We've got the Civinfo sticker on the placcy bottom window, and it doesn't get in the way at all

Years ago I had a Hillman Hunter that came with a dealer sticker.

I took it off and every service they put one back on again and every year I took it straight off and took it back to service reception and stuck it on the inside of their window.

Mine was delivered without a dealer sticker on the back window; all I have is the dealer name and phone number on the reg plates.

Mine came with a dealer sticker at the top of the glass window, removed easily 1/2 an hour after getting the car and replaced with a civinfo sticker in the lower window. Looks far better now!

a friend of mine said to his dealer when he bought his new car that how much were they gonna pay him for advertising there dealership? When the dealer laughed and said nothing he told them to remove it. lol

No Sticker on my car, but I told the dealer beforehand if I find a sticker on my car I will not take the car home with me.

Is your friend my dad? He does this when he buys a car LOL!

So it seems Honda Weston are the only fools to use the bottom back window to display the showroom sticker then!
