New car contracts?

[Big Rob]

Called into my nearest Holden dealer when we were in town yesterday to grab a couple of plastic clips for my wifes power window. We saw a poster for the Sandman and my van was parked outside their front door which got the attention of one of the salesmen, so I asked if they were getting one. The reply was that they hadn't ordered one yet(!) but if I wanted one they could order one for me. I asked for a brochure, they didn't have one. I asked for a price and availability of colours (and ute or wagon) and he couldn't help me either.

Essentially, they had a poster......

Totally underwhelming experience.

That's what I'm thinking Rob, sign up for a Sandman (after being told they could order one in) and then being pushed into a SS ute or wagon because they don't have any sandmans left. I guess at the end of the day it's your choice...but it's a pity the system that shows availability of vehicles on the computer seems very inadequate!!!
