When we are on the subject of dealers I've just spent 3 weeks trying to get the financing sorted on my new 07 Z. The damn thing has been sat in the dealers for 3 weeks (see pics below) and I was even ready to take the resale hit and collect it in early August, but they couldn't value my 05/55!
All we need now is somebody posting to this thread "well, if you got BMW/Audi/Porsche (delete as appropriate) service you would be paying (...) prices"
Personally, I blame the cheese eating, surrender monkeys over at Renault.
