Courtesy Cars

[jra3d]

Ok so my RS has gone for it's 12000 mile service and I have been supplied with a courtesy car!!

So I thought I'd make a thread as a bit of spam an see what people have had!!

I shall start with a:
11 plate
Nissan Qashqai Diesel N-tech
£21k

Strange. WHen I took my last car for a service merc gave me a manual a class, not even asking if I could drive a manual (which I quite obviously can but they didn't bother asking). I asked to change it and drove out in a brabus roadster coupe

Here's hoping that when I need a service I get a nice car! I got my Ibiza serviced and didn't even get one
My cousin got this whilst his astra was in for work though ;-)

 

[Karl]

Ive had

Meganes, Clios, Twingos, Lagunas

If i need a car i get what ever cars are left :lol:

 

[jra3d]

Few interesting ones! Brab roadie was always nice used to have a smart!!

Agilla... Not sure of the colour!

An Karl wouldn't expect any less

You lucky, lucky people.

My Courtesy car....KIA Picanto!
It was horiffic

I practically threw the keys at them when I gave it back, byfar, the WORST car I have ever driven!

 

[maggi200]

haha they're strangge aren't they. Superb value, and actually decent reliabiltiy. But a spongey clutch combined with a very sensative throttle was interesting. Kia's quality is deffo on the up though!

Renault retail use enterprise rental cars got a 1L corsa last time also had the new Shape scenic

 

[singlespeed]

Daewoo Matiz as an insurance courtesy car. 3 cylinder guttless piece of tinfoil rubbish. It's only saving grace was it saved me getting wet

 

[maggi200]

OO once I did get a 1.4 corsa in design spec with a few extras. Actually, was very well specced and a bit of a suprise. But it was still a corsa and horrid to drive!

 

[Dazza1]

The corsa's indecators r crap u put them on and the turn off

 

[maggi200]

haha i couldn't stop them indicating! I just ended up indicating the other way :lol: but i had climate, cruise, half leather, and it was all very comfy actually. Just I prefer firm ride, and feeling like i'm in a gokart

I'll be getting a courtesy car tomorrow for a day. Will keep you updated on what I get. (fingers crossed for a 250 :lol: )

when i was waiting for my Gordini to arrive my local dealer gave me a 133 glacier white cup to run about in had that for a month then gave that back and was given a Clio 200 had that for nearly two weeks.ness motors Inverness are possibly the best dealers around.

Toyota Aygo FTW!! haha

That was the last courtesy car we had. I had a choice of other cars, big boring crap from Enterprise but I wanted the Aygo because it looked fun.....

....and it was! Not my tyres or engine or clutch! lol

 

[maggi200]

:lol: some really long gearing and a lil 3 cylinder engine makes for some entertaining fun that's not as quick (actually nowhere near as quick) as it feels!

 

[Alex_225]

That's exactly it, plus it's actually not a bad handling car. I actually chose the Aygo out of the selection they had for the fun factor.

I wouldn't buy one but I can see why people do. The dashboard in it, is truly crap though. Worse interior plastics than the Twingo that's for sure.

 

[maggi200]

worst interior ever easily, why i chose the smart over it. Interior was a million times better, same price, and the smart was quicker too by a considerable margin!

They're sooo cheap to run too. I did look into one quite seriously, and i noticed the 107 was £1k more than the same spec aygo. When I asked why, the peugout dealer's response...

"you pay for the badge"

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
