well it just keeps getting better

those of you that know just traded my movano for a trafic after long boring issues with seat ( going to court so it seems)

anyway brought the trafic only a year old 10k miles from a vauxhall main dealer over the internet, when it was delivered back doors were a differnt colour one had been half sprayed also a few scratches. Under the 7 day return policy distance selling etc rejected the van.

eventually they agreed to let nationwide acceident repair do what ever was required approx £1k worth plus vat fortunatley the vans never been invloved in a major shunt it was just vauxhall touched up the rear door and got the colour wrong.

bearing in mind main reason for all this fuss was you could see a different colour in the back doors so clearly underlined, confirmed to nationwide , spray both back doors

picked van up today and they have only sprayed 1 door ffs and it was the same door that vauxhall sprayed  looks the same as it did before.

give up, so got to go back during the week and have it out with the estimator and quality manager etc not impressed in fact may take some toys with me next week and throw them out my pram

just out of interest does anyone know what the policy is on spray work ie there was a scratch along bottom panel of van to side nothing serious when the estimator was doing his report he said they would spray the whole panel up to roof line ditto bonnet light scratch across bonet so they would spray the while thing but they havent ok scratch has gone ( think it has been tcut out) but still the odd stone chip.

the vans a high roof vivaro/trafic the work required was spray both rear doors bonnet and 1 side of van total bill £1,116.19 inc vat  paint / mat £350 plus vat labour £530 plus vat roughly

they have definatley only part sprayed 1 rear door touched up/part spray bonnet and lower half of 1 side of the van not the whole side as thney stopped at the drivers door see a diffrent colour there too

Ford are exactly the same

Firm bought a then brand new '08 Tourneo tailgate and all four doors were a different shade. They tried twice to repaint it and it still looks like a patchwork disaster zone

The first excuse they gave is that modern waterbased paints are rubbish the second time they said that the shells are painted upright, whereas the doors are painted lying down, which makes the metal flake sink on metallic paints.

Once upon a time the doors were bolted on before the car was painted.

Who do you get your vans from? Bodgeit, Scarper and Notmyvan

I want excellent customer serviced backed up by a full warrenty and specilist servicing 

yes i went to Twaxhalls again again and then again oh yes and again before that. Really i should just get mugged before i even get to the dealership, would save listening to a load of bull shite

I would suggest only buying a new van, but thinking about it you can't even do that properly

I can't see any difference to be honest Luvvey    I can however see a rather nice looking Omega estate reflected in the shiny paintwork!

the garage is now taking the van back into spray the other door

mean while vauxhall main dealer Sherwoods who shoud have paid the bill but were unable to due to some mix up with invoices etc so mr trust anyone bell end lovelength paid on his visa oh of course Sherwoods would transfer the money as soon as they open on monday, its now wednesday and no money blokes got untill 10.00 am today or seriously going to loose it, its been building up

Why do vauxhall dealers make things so bloody difficult, everyone of them i have dealt with so far just mug you off all the time, never had this problem when i was a thug and rude and ignorant to people

gets on my titties, you grow up look at youself and become a better person only for some dildo to take the micky, need to go and sit in a 7 series and chill with terry wogan
