Is my experience with AM Bristol a one off?
Discussion
I took delivery of a Vantage V12S which is of course a beautiful car but I have had nothing but issues starting the first day when I drove it from Bristol to Norwich.
By the time I got to Norwich I realised only part of one of the light clusters worked and the sat nav started going up and down of its own accord.
The dealer suggested I was unlucky (the first day!!!!) and i should drive back and leave it with them for a few days
These bits are now being replaced under warranty which on a 13k miles car is shocking, last night it just died slowly coming up to an intersection lights still working but engine just went but restarted after two attempts
Its replacing a Jaguar XKR-S which has had Jaguar Design employee modifications around engine, exhaust and suspension no issues in three years
Ok I have been stupid buying from a dealer so far away and also let myself get ripped off by a dealer upgrade offer on bluetooth streaming which is rubbish BUT i expected more from the car at that mileage and from an AM dealer
I thought it would be amazing experience but sadly the lack of dealer preparation has ruined it
Sorry for the rant
