The dealer needs to be certified. Or shot. Try similar vehicles. I'm not
a 'new' vehicle type but if I was, I'd say try listening to vehicl;es
the same under the same conditions and then slap your 'dealer'.
Remember, he's certified to remove as much money from your wallet as
possible for as little effort as possible. LR dealers are (in my not so
humble opinion and after having dealt with more than 50% of the pieces
of **** in this humble isle) mainly a waste of space whose sole purpose
in life is separating you from as much wonga as possible for the least
inconvenience to themselves. And before any LR dealers out there have a
go, I know what your business premises cost, how much you pay your
mechanics, and how much your 'service' is really worth - when people
drive 200miles (400ml round trip) to get their vehicles serviced (MINOR
SERVICE), buy OEM for under 50% (under 35% in most cases), and can get
service on a Sat. afternoon (LR dealers go **** yourselves 'cos you'll
never **** another customer of mine!). I work with tax-exempt vehicles
but more & more newer vehicles get referred to me because we charge (now
about £20 p/h - newer premises) reasonable amounts and CARE about the
vehicles. I'm in NE Scotland and Town&County & Frank Ogg can go take a
flying **** because you're both pieces of ****.
Test-drive vehicles similar to what you have. The only reason I
replied is 'cos we found a vehicle (same spec) similar to yours for a
customer and it made no noises like your lying bastard dealer says are
normal. And then I had the "we're not interested - it's Sat. afternoon"
response.
Want a vehicle - ask your local ORC. Main dealers - I hope you
all die a horrible and painful death unless you mend your ways - our
ethos was right and successful and would have become country-wide if I
hadn't gone 'bok'. Two years on and rebuilding....
