Any good or bad experience of servicing with Inchcape?

[Mag_Pie]

I'm looking into where to go in the future for servicing and wondered if anyone had experience of North West dealers, in particular the Inchcape dealers as there are one or two in my area.

Thanks.

Used Inchcape Romford a week or so ago and found them to be fine - did the job, stamped the book and did not wash the car as instructed.

They've got a bit of a monopoly on the dealerships around Manchester I think. On the servicing side I've never had any problems (have used Stockport and Manchester) but have never really tested them out as haven't had anything go wrong with my car.

I use VW West London (Inchcape). They are very accommodating. But NEVER let them (or any VW dealer) talk you into the free specific dealer-fit paint swirl option!

lol!  I had signs stuck to the inside of my windows on both sides saying "DO NOT WASH THIS CAR'!

So did they WASH your car?

Oops typo!  They very quickly picked up on my car OCD tendencies when I told them not to wash it, not to test drive it and to use the softened water I had brought along with me to mix with screen-wash.

They got the head technician to do my car, lol...

You've got MEGA OCD. Love it. I thought I was bad enough or good enough, but you are our Resident OCD Knight of the Garter. Rise Sir Mark and we will do thy bidding!

Could you dry clean my microfibre cloths please?

Dear Sir Mark,

I would love to, but my local dry cleaner also has OCD and only accepts very expensive garments. Towels he does not do. My sincere apologies for not accommodating you in your hour of need.

Yours faithfully,
A mortified, unhelpful vassal.
