Thanks for raising the issue, i'll be reading my invoice very carefully.
Not sure who the Colchester OPC is now, some paperwork says Lancaster and some Jardine. After 25 years the parts dept telephone number is still etched in my brain and working though!Tim92gts2017-05-17 10:39:53

Lancaster Motors is now part of the Jardine Motor Group

Interesting, Stratstone is the only company I would never buy another car from after also trying to add fees and services on a Jag a few years ago.

They also tried to get out of a free service they had given with the purchase of a car, then a spare wheel mysteriously vanished on return of a vehicle.

I'm currently looking for a 911 and found one I was interested in which happened to be Bolton. After finding out who owned them, would rather keep looking!

I have to say that apart from the Stratstone connection which I only became aware of following this post the SE has been very good since I ordered. Always responded promptly to queries and i never felt rushed when I've been down to see him. So apart from the charge which isn't his fault I must say they have been much better than the Mercedes garages I have had the pleasure of dealing with over the last 5 years.

He has set aside at least 2 hours on Friday to go through everything on the car which again is much better than the 15 mins at Mercedes which are basically the same as Ford and Vauxhall now

So overall I've been pleased by the service so far and hope this continues on Friday Coley402017-05-17 22:08:04

I have to say I have been very pleased with Bolton - I'm on my 6th car from them. Let me know if you need me to do some introductions. Don't be put off just because they are part of Stratstone.

PM me if you like.

That's really good. Much better than Mid Sussex, which is Synter Group. Synter rarely bother answering email and don't return calls until you've called at least 3 times. We got about 5 minutes of run through of the car on collection. Enough to synch the phones. I'd really have appreciated the type of service you've had. Enjoy collection. And do please share details of your experience as well as photos.

Thats good of you, thanks!

Unfortunately I wouldn't give the company a second chance, it was that bad, never experienced anything like it.

Thanks again for the offer though.
