mook05 Member 108 Member For: 21y 10m 25d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 27/05/04 08:06 AM Share Posted 27/05/04 08:06 AM Thanks for the comments guys, I have updated my signature to show what I'm about to get...They gave me the car for a day while they shopped around for the best deal on my trade in. So I got to drive it to the city for work, the wife had a drive out the back of Yarra Glen, also drove it at night to take it back - great test drive.No brake shudder, no driveline shunt. All feels good.The owner of the dealership was driving it to and from work. The word is it was not broken in shyly at all, hence it goes pretty hard now....Average lt per 100 was 13 for the day!I'm not going to say I cant wait a week to get it. I feel sorry for you guys having to wait months for yours!Cheers,Michael...

Same with the GHIA bootlid carpet - "but sir that is not listed as an accessory" reply - "I know, it's a spare part for the GHIA - here's the part number for the carpet and the 14 clips I need" (they couldnt find the part numbers for them either)Anyway, thanks to the forum, I was a very well educated buyer last night........

Guest SS75 Guests Posted 27/05/04 11:42 PM Share Posted 27/05/04 11:42 PM I doubt ANY dealer could be as unhelpful as these heads.Knowing that they'll obviously want to get it done before the end of the financial year I told them last night that unless its here by Tuesday, they will have to wait five weeks as I am going to Melbourne.......... Now lets see when I get it! Follwed one of their transporters back from the dealer last night to see if I could find where they are dropped off in BNE, but I lost the in the traffic!In all seriousness though, this dealer offers the WORST customer service I have ever experienced. I have bought a new car at least every two years, the current car that's being traded just turned 1, and I have never been around so much. If anyone from Bryne reads this..........you better take some photos of the car when you get it, cause it will be the only way you'll ever see it again!

I decided I had to go one because the soft cover just flaps too much on the freeway.While I was there the spare parts guy said the covers won't be available till the 9th of June, and my salesman who was talking to him said, "hmm that's a small problem because the ute will be here before then."So I might have to make a trip back to get it fitted after I pick it up, but at least the salesman said that the ute will be here before June 10 (not knowing I could hear him ), which is what I was banking on!!I also got an interesting special edition of Wheels mag that has 86pages on just the Territory. not sure if its new or not, but they are free and prob at all Ford dealers. Its a good read.

Ryan was extremly helpful the car was delivered when he said, and came with champagne and choclates in the glove box, Ryan also rand me during the night out of hours after I picked up the car to see that everything was alright. Also included a free service at 3,000 k's free delivery I live 400 k's from Gunnedah. I'll never buy from anyone else again.
