Hi All

I have seen a car in this dealer, just wondered if anyone has had any dealing with them?

Trying to get me to put a holding deposit on said car. Bit worried about that, but as the car is rare so it would no doubt sell quickly.

I have been to other Stratstone dealers in the past and was not too impressed with the preparation of their cars.

Only thing is Cardiff is at least 2.5 hours from me so this car best in good condition smile !!! Part exchange price they offered was not too bad, but I think there is room for improvement.

AMDBSNick what model was Laura's car? They only got this car yesterday afternoon, but it won't physically arrive until end of week.

Seems a little sad that I am selling my very first Aston frown although upgrading to another one feels great.

No, that one is not the car in question. But that does look very nice.

The guys at Stratstone seem OK at the moment, but that's because they want my money no doubt. I am no push over and if the car is not as stated or prepared as I think it should be, then I walk.

I am querying their pricing of car, as I saw another N400 go recently from Grange in Essex for 4k less than Stratstone's one. The one at Grange was the same colour but with less mileage (nearly 10k less infact) only other difference is that Stratstone's is a manual not Sportshift like Grange one.

I have it writing from them they will refund deposit if I do not like or want the car.

Yes dealing with Chris little too, seems like a decent guy.

I have missed out a few times now on these cars so thought why not secure it before it goes. They've offered a resonable part exchange on mine. Although I was trying to sell it privately but am getting too many timewasters offering stupid money without sering it or asking things like is it economical on petrol.

Only issue with selling it privately is my private plate. Need to get that sorted, but thinking can't really bothered with it all just let dealer do it all after the amount of timewasters I have calling up.

Just wondering if I did buy the car if they would be able to deliver to my local Stratstone dealer to pick up and Drop my part ex off there. Anyone done this before? Don't fancy another long drive to Cardiff again.
