Reps higher up the food chain tend to drive cars like the A4, A6, 3 Series, 5 Series, C Class, E Class, with Audi gradually making headway over BMW. Most of these are cooking versions. Those lower down the food chain are in Golfs, Focuses, A3s, Vectras, Mondeos, Kias, Hyundais etc. Again cooking versions. But it all matters not a jot. One buys the car one likes and is most comfortable with. If what you like and buy is a repmobile, then so be it.

Reps often get a choice what they can have.
Our reps at work non have BMWs but they could have had them, some use to have C class mercs but now have passat cc's the rest have Audi A3s theres also one A4 and some prius. All in base colours mind so white, black or red. I think they shoukd all have vans but thats just my opinion because of the type of buisness we are.
The company next door there reps have a white polo GTI, theres a red and a black golf GTI and a  grey GTD and lots of  ford focus.

Great thread :grin:

I am a 'rep' and drive an '13 Estoril Blue 320d M-Sport.....the other 7 sales people in our team also all have variations on a 3 series Bimmer.....our boss has a 5 series. BMW and the VAG cars make great company cars due to their low emissions and high residuals meaning great monthly payments on lease vehicles....the old school Fords/Vauxhalls are the polar opposite and a bad fleet choice...simple economics :whistle:

Very few reps I know are lucky enough to have a GTi, but there are lots of GTD's i know of which would have been my choice if it wasn't for the 3 series company car policy :sad:
