McMaddy: Silverlink has one and it was in today. Shadow blue. I went for a look and as I pulled into the dealership it was just coming back from the sales manager having taken someone out (he was driving, not the customer). He got out and was back in the dealership by the time I had parked up and walked around. Had a good look at it (around it and through the window at the interior). The salesmanager came out and asked if I was interested in ordering one, or had I already. Then he recognised me as the person who'd been in, got short shrift after asking for a discount and getting a poor p/x price offered for the Roc, then coming back days later for the Roc service and telling him 2 had been ordered elsewhere. He told me that as I wasn't buying from Benfield he wasn't prepared to let me sit in it. I said that I was a Benfield customer as i'd previously bought 3 cars from them and I still chose to take my warranty work and servicing there for convenience. "that's aftersales" he sneered, and walked back in the showroom, what a complete twit.
Anyway, all looked good from what I saw except wor lass wasn't impressed with the red/white/grey tartan. "looks a bit mulberry charva that does, is yours coming like that?". I then proceeded to explain that GTI and GTD come in the pattern except for the GTD there is a shade of grey where the red aspects of the GTI interior are. She could see that I wasn't impressed with the comment and said "well the grey will look better than the red" in her attempt at appeasement.
