Do you have to be rude to be a used prestige car dealer ?

[phib]

For a start I know they are not all rude but blimey some really take the biscuit !!

Looked ar two cars today both six figures, first one, arranged an appointment arrived at the dealer (arrived in a car twice the price of the one we were looking at, so probably not time wasters)

Dealer then takes phone call and asks us to wait while he takes the call, so we wait and he gets off the phone, then takes another call.

At this point I can't really be bothered with it so mouth "we are off".

2nd car we look at, go into dealer, no clients in showroom salesman on PC, doesn't get up or shake our hand points to the car. Not great condition but there is something else we like. So I ask how much it is

Car dealer "Its X amount of money"
Me " thats a lot" (3 x price of comparable car on pistonheads)
Dealer "Its a factory car"
Mrs Phib" well is it carbon or alloy body ?"
Dealer " I don't know"
Mrs Phib " Looks like carbon, so its not a factory car"
Salesman goes back to looking at PC !!!

We walk out !!

We would have happily bought one or both cars, maybe we should have been more patient but i sell items worth £1 or £2 and treat my customers with the utmost professionalism and respect

Its not so hard !!!

Rant over
