ABS card
« on: 03 April 2008, 21:02:47 »
Went to my local vauxhall dealer today (Evans Halshaw) for quote on some parts. I told them Im going to join ABS so will get a membership card and asked about discount on parts. They said they had never even heard of them so no go on discount.  :'(

The letter you get from ABS with the card tells you exactly how to "correct" their mistake ... politely  :)

They probably haven't heard of Autobahnstormers, but the card has a valid TC number on it, so if your dealer partakes in TC, they will honour it (they may have to ring someone for confirmation).

my local vx dealer does not participate in the trade club scheme, however, their sister branch 15 miles up the road does. so i phone through my order at the sister branch and then they drive it to the local dealer for me to collect. it sounds illogical but im sure theres sense in there somewhere.

My dealer aren't set up for ABS cards but insist on putting everything on the Mig Performance Vauxhall number. Makes no odds to me.

ABS one is yellow with Autobahnstomers written on it, with a sticker on it giving TC details and expirty.  Other clubs may be different.  AFAIK, VxON's is still transparent and (as we say in the IT industry) like Vapourware.

Genuine is silver with red Griffin, and member details printed on it.
