in 5 years, I don't think I have ever had a free loaner bike, bar at Steptoe! Vines always sting me £25 quid and Park Lane stewarts road stung me £20 for a scooter!!!! Park Lane W1 whatever...won't ever be back in their showroom. 5 years ago I enquired about the best deal etc to match my then budget on a new 2010 tc....sorry sir can't do that, and we don't price match other dealers etc. ..So I went to Williams Manchester when I was there a weekend later...No problems Sir, all done as per your budget. Thanks for the business. 3 Days later Park Lane rang up to ask why I didn't buy through them. When I explained they couldn't match my budget so I went elsewhere. Simples. Subsequent pissed off park lane reply was "you should have come back to us"...laters
QUOTE=stuartw;4312652]To be honest, I find all the BMW dealers to be fanatstic ! Have you ever tried to get a test ride of a Honda or KTM? Lots of questions, lots of hassle.
BMW are so good with "loaners" and test rides. The blokes they employ in the service/parts/clothing sections are always excellent (imho) .
What do you want ? A warm welcome, Coffee, Unambiguos deals, straightforward advice, zero bullshit . The truth about delivery dates .
I get that.
Williams (Manchester) are my favourite, I purchased 4 bikes from them over the years and everytime it was a pleasure, exciting even ![/QUOTE]
