Question

Does anyone know of a new dealer in the Yeovil (dorset/somerset area).

Vale Motors are in Wincanton - had good sales experience with a chap called Ed. His manager is a bit of an old-school 4rse saleman.

Don't talk to me about Vale motors... money grabbing ba***rds...

Paid them to have Tracker as an optional extra - a month or so later I had a call from Tracker asking for the money. Seems Vale hadn't passed on the money - and even confronted, wanted to argue about it!
They didn't have a Subaru person there to hand over my car either - the only bloke there didn't know a thing - and when it came to Tracker, told me to give Tracker a call and they'd explain everything.
Oh, and they never put in the mats that I'd paid for either...

Obviously everyone has their own experience, but I personally wouldn't go back there...

I bought my MY00 from them last April, they were fine and dandy for me. I only bought it from them as my Wife's parents live in Ilchester and it was one bored Sunday Afternoon job!!

They picked me up from the Traim station when I went to get the car, it had the Disk changer and Aircon fitted as requested, and the paperwork was all signed in about 20 mins. I did ask about the PPP, but all they had was a few grubby photocopies and the chap didn't appear to know to much about it. But it wasn't the end of the world.

My only grumble was the fact that I had to pay £40 for some car mats. I mean, for pity's sake, on a £21k car, you should expect to get them included...what's that all about then?

Anyway, I agree, the new garage is just up from Westland's on the road out/in to Yeovil and the A303 (I think it's that). It's on a roundabout next to a Fish and Chip Restaurant.
