so hacked off!........ - .: XT660.com

So a few days ago I put my deposit down on an awesome xt660z, first attempt to pick up the bike and finalise paperwork dealer says 'im sorry we havent managed to put it through the workshop yet!

Few days later I get a phone call from dealer 'all is good lets finalise paperwork'. On arrival at dealership sale rep prints off all documents, as im reading through the docs I noticed the figures were all wrong and quiried it. The sales rep hadnt checked through the paperwork and the finance company had accepted but changed the terms of the contract.

So ive told the dealer were to shove it as they are obviously incapable and argued the toss to get my deposit back!

So im off to look at a diferent ten tomorrow! 16k miles in karkhi colour, got yam top box, heated grips and handguards. All for over 2k less in cost all be it a little bit older. Very clean motor.

So hopefully come tomorrow ill have propper paperwork with the right details for the right price! Lol

Ill let you all know how I get on!
Cheers chris.

Bloody hell! And I thought it was only in the colonies that we got crappy service like that. We have some dealers here that give shocking service like you got, as if it's the first bike they've ever sold, it's almost enough to make you buy a Suzuki (no, not really).
They are lucky that they have great product to make up for their ****house customer service.
Enjoy your ride, hope it works out for you! Boneman

I can never understand why they cant sort things like this out as im sure it costs them a massive amount wasting peoples time and effectively money which could have been theres

Ever wonder why so many dealers are closing down with this type of treatment?

I'd have thought with the market the way it is that they would be working even harder to make you feel like a wanted customer!

Nowt as queer as folk

Cheer Guys,

I was pretty bummed out about it tbh but im kinda glad really because the one ill be looking at this morning is much nicer and a better deal!

yes the other one only had 400 miles on it but it needed lots of extra bits to get it to a comfortable all year round ride-ability ie heated grips and bush guards etc.

Ill let you all know what happens come the morning!!

Fingers crossed eh!

Well ive been to see the beast in the flesh this morning and she is a beauty.

Very clean and tidy no marks or scuffs, couple oh tiny dents in the yam top box but nothing too obvious! The chain and sprockets are orriginal and in good condition. There is a slight bit of bubbeling starting on the engine casing which ill knock him down on price for. It is a cover on the side stand side of the bike with a black tube going to it! No doubt i could take it off rub it down and repaint it.

Nice pair of avon dizantis (howevr the heck you spell it) on there, yam handguards and alarm system. And best of all its KARKHI coloured! Mmmmmmmm

So now waiting for the proposal to get accepted and as soon as it comes back deposit goes down, paper work is trippled checked using the hubble telescope and all being well ill be riding it to work this weekend!

So fingers crossed just waiting for that call!

Cheers chris!
