Well I am dead chuffed

I got home from work this afternoon to find my dad waiting for me wanting to go look at car garages,

my car at present is a ford focus 54 plate which he bought me brand new in september 2004. its had its problems though.

So off we go to look at fords (dad has a thing for fords even though he has a jag) the guy at thr garage was so obnoxious!!! said he wouldnt take us for a test drive as he didnt think we would buy the car!!! I said fine bye I wasnt up for being insulted.

Off we go to Peugeot, lovely 206 right in the window, had a look around it, it was a 206 verve edition allows cd air con the lot, Decided thats the car for me!!
Dad bought it for me and I get it thursday brand new cant wait!!!

Just wanted to share I know I am VERY lucky to have a dad who can do these things.

just needed a happy dance :cool1: :cool1: :cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

Jaguar is owned by Ford now :)
 
Make sure the obnoxious Ford salesman is the first stop you make after you pick it up! Like that scene in Pretty Woman!

:confused3 Their loss but please do the 'Pretty Woman' thing!

I find it shocking that people get such poor service:

My dad's old boss has problems being taken seriously because she is youngish, petite and a woman.

When she went to test drive a Ford and couldn't reach the pedals the saleswoman told her that it wasn't important.

Even better when she went to buy a house she was asked if she realised that it was rather an exclusive area and could she actually afford to buy a house there. Her reply was along the lines of "you'll never know because I won't be buying one from you!"

Have fun with your 206 and please post us a photo!
