Speaking of BMW dealers, Milcars BMW in London - complete ****ers
I'll type my latest experience whilst having my breakfast !
Popped in yesterday to get a bracket for a boot changer, it came to the princely sum of £1.80
I had no cash on me and there was no cashpoint nearby so I said 'sorry but I'll have to pay by switch'
Parts guy : Oh, it's a £5 minimum for card purchases
Me : OK, just charge a fiver then, I'm in a rush
He starts putting it on the computer but I thought why give them money for nothing so,
Me : Actually, sorry but can I have a wheel cleaner as well to take the bill over £5
Does the invoice and it came to £6 something and he gives me the bracket and car wax
Me : Sorry but I asked for wheel cleaner
Parts Guy : Oh, thats £10 though
Me : That's fine (I thought I'd give it a try)
He then realises that he's have to do some work in refunding the wax and charging for the wheel cleaner so he says : I tell you what, I'll give you a smaller bottle of wheel cleaner and charge you the same as for the wax
This really slightly intoxicated me off as he knew full well that I was only trying to make up £5 worth so why try and give me the big bottle of cleaner then mention the smaller one ONLY when he realised he'd have to get off his *** and do some effing work
What slightly intoxicated me off even more is that the wheel cleaner is CHEAPER than the wax so how is he doing me a favour and letting me have it for the same price ?
Not the money which bothers me but I really hate it when people try to take advantage
My sister in law bought her 320Ci from their Ruislip branch and they were total ****ers as well
As much as I love BMWs I'd really think twice before getting one given the experiences of the dealers near me
