VW ‘South Oxford’ (or ‘DIDCOT’, as the locals call it) – AVOID. Brother went in on March 31st (literally the first day he could after receiving his letter) to order a Golf R-type and they couldn’t get the Order to go through. Refused to guarantee the £100AP and told him to come back tomorrow – by which time the AP had gone up to £300 and he could no longer afford the heated seats and steering wheel Option that would have made a big difference to someone with arthritis in his legs, hips, spine and hands. Manager didn’t want to know. Bunch of scunners! Would have gone elsewhere if he could have, but the nearest two are too awkward to get into for him. I told him to take it up with Motab but he’s sick of the whole thing and just wants to drop it.
I wonder what’s gone on down in Marshall’s of south Oxford as if we remember right they were the ones doing the best AP deals back 3 years ago and one of the ones to start us all even thinking about discounts.
They used to have a presents here on this forum too but have gone quite for a year or more, thought it might have just been the Covid thing but do wonder with the Motability deals they were doing and coming to Motability’s attention for doing remote ordering back then has caught up with them.
