@Rene if you expect me to reply to each of your, what I would politely call pretty torrid replys to my suggestions of ways mb could maybe do more for user on the scheme, than they currently do to help those few who find themselves in this situtation and what mb could do to help them in these situations, you’ll be waiting a long time.
I am not going to enter into some tit for tat argument with you over the fact that in theses case’s, where one has a scheme car and it’s written off or stolen and they are left without car, that something more could not be done by Mb. It’s very different from waiting for a car or even a new person wanting to join the scheme and having to wait.
You are not in this situation you currently have a car on order waiting for yours albeit it’s a long wait, I hope no one writes off you Mb car and leave’s you in this situation.
The fact your suggesting one should get a banger for £300 and as the fact this poster said they need space for 2 cars seat and a 3rd person. So I ask the question are you saying you would put your kids in a banger for £300 (as you called it not me) and is that your solution to this issue ? If it is that is something I find very disturbing.
There are other factors also, like the cost of insurance and that is often age related and often a bonus for negative part.
Anyhow thats all I got time for we will have to agree to disagree on this.
