Well she's in and I'm like an expectant mother,...

But, they appear to have given me a 308CC in black as a courtesy car, its brand new! :)

Very RCZ looking from both inside and the front half

Missing half the finish (Leather) and toys (bluetooth, ipod etc) but its very nice all the same

Peugeots "we'll just give it a check FOC after 1000 miles" service

BUT! got my RCZ back just now and I delivered it sparkling clean, its been returned Dusty and not even the carpets hoovered.

Nissan did this every time the car was in. Was I spoilt or has my dealer slipped up this time ?

I always ask the dealer not to clean it when it goes in for a service or anything. They add scratches, swirls and all sort of nasty marks to your paintwork. They use sponges and chamois leathers.....................they never learn !

They slipped up mate, my dealer has always returned my cars sparkling (ok not hoovered but washed and alloys cleaned).

I'm with RCZ1 on this one. I specifically request for them not to clean the car. I was just reading on a VW forum that some guy asked for his car not to cleaned only to find they did clean it. His compensation after kicking up a fuss was £250 to pay for the car to be professionally detailed. They can and do make a real mess in my opinion.

I agree,

My RCZ went in for it's 1000 mile service last a week, the night before, I cleaned it to within an inch of it's life.
When I droped the car of I told them "what ever you do , don't wash my car, it dos'nt need it" :!: , the woman behined the service desk said " alot of people prefer it that way, no problem"

The car came back in one piece, and I washed it again when I got home :roll: (just to check it over, it's the best way to find scratches etc) ;)
