I just find "Plip" abit geeky/cringeworthy from the deepest depths of sales slang/ spin. Your on an internet site about cars...come on theres a bit of geek in all of us. Quote

Yeah well guess what Ham? I got two "remotes" with mine as well and a snazzy key ring too :o :D Quote
Mat Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 ... as well and a snazzy key ring too :D :o My leather keyring has gone mouldy :P Quote
Ciaran2903 Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 I did have the "C4 Keyring", i really liked it, but it broke! :D :P Now i have a leather and metal one, it is nice, but it doesn't have C4 on it! :D :D Supposidly there is no stock at the moment, and there is a problem with production. :o Quote
NightFly Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 My new car is due Friday week, again, three months wait. I will let you know if I get a pl*p or a folding key, and how many :P I saw a Wicked Red C4 in Prague over the weekend, nearly missed it cos I was too busy watching some Czech beauties walking by! It was the only one I saw though! Quote
C4VTS Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 It was the only one I saw though! Car or Czech beauty ? :o :D :P In my gym there is a very nice Czech female fitness instructor. :D :D Quote
Jonny Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 You'll never guess what?! After receiving all proper confirmation of delivery next Monday, and even getting my insurance sorted to stat then, my car isn't going to arrive then after all! Why? The dealer went to the depot to pick it up and do the PDI yesterday and the car wasn't there! Brilliant. So Citroen have reverted to dealing me that the car is still on its way; "on a transporter somewhere". Is it just me or does this seem ridiculous that they cannot track down a car? It appears that all they really know is that it left the factory on the 22nd September and it hasn't actually turned up at the depot like was showing on the system. Anyone know anything I can do to force this issue and get to the bottom of this mess? At the moment they can't tell me a new date at all! Quote
Mike5483 Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Tell them you want your deposit back. That'll get them moving, the thought of losing money!!! Quote
Rich_Eason Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Surely if you have sorted out your insurance, that would suggest that the car has been registered, which would mean that the VIN number has been recorded against the reg, which is probably in the process of being registered to you. So I wouldnt really accept their excuses that they "cant find it" as I would have thought by now the V5 docs are being processed? Unless you are happy to insure someone elses car? Quote

So I wouldnt really accept their excuses that they "cant find it" as I would have thought by now the V5 docs are being processed? Unless you are happy to insure someone elses car? I have bought through an agency - nicenewcars.co.uk and they transfer ownership to myself on the day I receive my car, which had been "definitely" confirmed for monday - hence why I needed to get insurance set up for when I receive the car at work on Monday and then need to take it home. I'm going to have to try and arrange a new insurance start date but with no new expected delivery I'm a bit stuck! Grrr. Quote
wozza Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Guessing you wont be recommending that site for business in future? lol. Just get on to them about it threaten to return the car due to being messed about etc. Give them a deadline to sort it out. Quote
captainsensible Posted October 12, 2006 Author Posted October 12, 2006 So Citroen have reverted to dealing me that the car is still on its way; "on a transporter somewhere". Is it just me or does this seem ridiculous that they cannot track down a car? If its any consolation, I am in the same boat and being told the same thing - apparently there have been some logistical problems! They must be pretty bad as my car has arrived in the UK twice now, according to the 'system'! Quote
Irongrey Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 I think I must be one of the lucky ones, my VTR+ HDI arrived yesterday as promised by ukcardiscount.com ,I have driven 200 miles and love the car, it is worth waiting for. Quote
NightFly Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Car or Czech beauty ? B) B) :huh: The car!! B) There are more Czech beauties than Ford Focus's B) I can see why Prague is so popular, it has nothing to do with the beautiful city or the beer, it's the babe count B) Quote
Stuey Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Prague is deffinately a target rich enviroment...an Englishman will never stand a chance with a Czech lady of lovliness though, strictly look but you will never touch... Quote
captainsensible Posted October 14, 2006 Author Posted October 14, 2006 Now got my car - well pleased so far! Quote
wozza Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 ^ you forgot the little image... http://www.uvyd.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/worthless.gif Quote
NightFly Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 It's finally arrived! :lol: Just a slight difference between this and my R reg Fiat Brava :P Really pleased with it so far, lovely smooth drive.I drove 100 miles it in on deliver day!It was a bit dirty as it had come 230 miles in rainy conditions.Interior wasn't what I was expecting, they said it would all be in the same finish. The two tone effect is growing on me though Next step, read the manual :D I would show you some photos, but I can't see how to :angry: Quote
Ciaran2903 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 go to www.photobucket.com (co.uk?) and set up an account, upload the pics, then put the pictures url into the "IMG" box. Done :P p.s. thanks to whoever told me this, I dont like taking credit for something that someone told me! :D Quote
C4VTS Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I would show you some photos, but I can't see how to :P Just type Upload Photo into Google and you will get loads of free sites for uploading photos, and you don't need to register for most of them. After uploading, use the IMG button to paste in the URL of your uploaded photo. Quote
NightFly Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 Tried the MSN version, and this web site doesn't like JPEGS! Try this link! My Webpage Quote
