Dont buy a new car!!

[Silver V]

Ever had a salesman say that to you?

I just have!! I purchased my car jul 27th last year and was looking at a 3dr Astra 1.9cdti!! Went down and spoke to the sales guy who sold me my car and he was quite friendly when I bought my car and couldnt help enough.

enquired about the Astra and he said about the price and that then I said how much would I get for mine?

He looked at mine and said " Thats Really nice, I like what you have done to it and I really like the wheels." He then said I'd get about £7000 private with all standard and then took me over to his Company car..... Astra 1.9CDTI and said it has the VXR kit. I said yea it looks nice.. He then said Dont buy it..... You'll be downgrading, and going backwards!!

And said again I really like how you have put your car together. It does look really good and stands out alot more!


I think I have Just had the best comment on my car to date!

A truthful salesman.... very rare indeed.

well you were looking at an astra..........so i guess that is downgrading .and when youve got a car as good looking as yours why change ??

I agree with the title, don't buy a new car.

The initial depreciation is crippling. Buy nearly new and save a F O R T U N E

Hahahahaahaha, you fell for it, it isn't he doesn't want you to buy a car, it's he doesn't wanna lose his VXR demo sledge.

I had a guy do this to me on an omega, it was his rammer and he liked it too much, even tried to blow the deal out wanting to test my px and then came back slurring about the steering was shot, I rang his oppo up about ten mins after signing for it and told him to tear up the order sheet, he asked why, when I told him he said to me ok sorry about that mate i'll have a word with him.
