vauxhall dealerships are like powerflow exhausts!
99% are total dimlos who wouldnt know a car from a push bike,
but some... just some.... are very good at what they do!

I Had a bit of a confrontation with the parts guy in welling cos i said i wanted to change the interior colour of my car and i said i would need a new dash, cards, anything that is plastic really, and he was like "thats not something that we would do" i said to him "your a parts dept, i want some parts, thats your job" he was like "yeah but" so i just told him to go take a runnin jump as im takin my business elsewhere. what a tosser, He was really snotty and unhelpful. and he looked like an oompah loompah!
