drive the deal expectations

I’ve just wasted several minutes watching videos of a foul mouthed angry Yorkshireman called Ronnie pickering.
A very entertaining thread.

It's a modern day classic.

At least the OP is taking it well. If it was me I'd deactivate my account after offering the whole forum to a bare-knuckle fight à la Ronnie Pickering

Liar you’d have been to busy ignoring your wife to polish the golf 

Hey, it's worked for the last 12 years. She knows she comes second to cars/bikes (hopefully she never sees this)

Just read this.
I've bought 2 cars from DtD in Kent (GTI/GTD) having travelled from Scotland by train for them as I also wished to drive it home.

As I had saved James (salesman) the price of having to pay someone to drive it to me (his words) he picked us up at the station and provided us with a full tank of fuel, gave my partner the VW aluminium mug (her car) and added the £199 2 service deal for free.
This was on the GTD as I cant remember the GTI deal.

At no point did I ask for any of this, he arranged to pick us up and through the rest in as a thank you.
Maybe we were lucky but he was excellent with us.

Thanks for the info - will wait and see on the day what happens - either way, looking forward to it!

And don't forget the most important thing, a couple of pictures of your new pride and joy!

You’d have saved OP from an absolute roasting if you’d have said this earlier. This is all he wanted to know, poor chap!

It’s not boxer shorts he needs it’s a bin liner for the balls he has on him

This also has a lot to do with the potential length and cost of the delivery if the car is not collected by the customer. As I was only in Herts (they are in Kent) I was not saving them a big hassle and so I gratefully accepted the full tank of fuel (although I had earlier politely requested fuel if only to ensure I didn't have to stop after a couple of miles).

The poster further up on this page is based in Scotland and so I guess that must have helped with the servicing gift from James as their delivering the car to him would have been a costly exercise.

[Exonian]

If a DtD customer pays the same overall OTR price delivered from Kent to Scotland as one living in the Home Counties then it’s not unreasonable to hope for a tank of fuel and a keying if collecting from Kent.
