What a good night, wine was on the erm, savings side ;) :D

Managed to blag a cap :D - sufficiently annoy the salesmen with the 22B - and sell some WW stuff by a demo!!!!

I didn't see you there Jason H :p What is your excuse THIS time??? ;)

Good to see ChrisB who saw the blag - Chrisp and Chrisp senior all of whom witnessed the wax demo I did LOL :D

Had to mop around the 22b again for all the drool :rolleyes:

Bloomin' cheeky feckers those security guards were!!!!

:D

All I can say is - Jonto, you missed out on getting your car waxed ;)

Is there much of Staffordshire left where Jonto's reputation and "mark" (of the tyre variety ;)) have not been felt????

I cant repeat what the salesman said when the 22B fired up as it would get ************** everywhere :D. Suitable impressed I think I did warn them to cover their ears :D. Very good for a dealer BBQ as there were no pressure sales and the salemans seemed as interested in the cars as us. Had a good night I thought my dad would get bored but he went round trying all the cars out, drinking the wine and listening to the band :D. I think he will be at the next one if we are allowed back :D.

Excellent stuff, was he on the red or white? I took a sip at the red - it was erm, not palatable to my tastes ;)

How did you find out about this ? I'm slightly miffed as I've bought at UK car off them this year and no invite and several of you with 'grey' cars seems to have been invited !!

Confused,

LOL@Jonto - eat isn't quite the word I would look for - more nibble at you slowly ;)

I think the salesman was scared after I harrassed him so much for it :D He just told me to take it ;)

All we saw was this mad man waving madly out of the sunroof and heard ayell that followed the car :D

Jonto, I have found Holdcrofts to be quite generous:

- new clutch, radiator, power steering pipework

Or perhaps they have sold me a nail and just feel guilty?

PS I didn't get an invite either

Ian I didnt get one invite I got three through the post ;). Maybe the fact I had my UK serviced there before I went grey, I think I am on their customer database 3 times. I think ChrisB got three invites as well but he has a UK turbo. The rest of them blagged invites :D.

Cheers

One of the salesmen remembered me from when I test drove two cars over a year ago!!!! This was when the WRX had just been launched as an official UK model.........

I just blagged an invite after a surprise visit ;)

ChrisB

Yup, I got three invites as well.

Me thinks their customer DB is a little screwed...
