That's just what I said to the salesman (minus the ffs of course)  confused:

He has no idea of the delivery process so I suggested that he find out (politely like)

No news on my car yet, apparently the paint job didn't go well so they are having to do it again.  Seemingly their telephone skills are just as bad as they have not once yet been able to ring me and update me.  They have had it at their garage since 18th December.   noooo:
It's better than I ever even knew.  They say that the world was built for two.  Only worth living if somebody is loving you.  Baby now you do.

One series?

Does it 'CLAIM' to have leather by any chance? rubschin:


It'd more than likely to be VINYL if so, albeit with a fancy name. ::)
. Be aware, 'cus it lasts 3 years before cracking up and splitting, and it's pure and utter shite.

BM are not alone in this latest industry scam/trick.

Have you asked the question "is it REALLY leather"?
What's the sales brochure say? rubschin:

Believe me, unless they've changed the material fairly recently, it really is utter crrap.

I generally only work on cars that are 2/3+ years old so haven't seen in a new one recently.

This crap material seems to start disintigrating on ALL manufacturers vehicles after 25k and or 3 years, so be warned.

Kia recently got into trouble under the Trades Description Act due to mis-describing it in their sales literature.
