Dealer in East Midlands

I am about to take the step and order a tdv8 hst and I am less than impressed with two sales guys I have met. I have a 3.2 boxter 987 s that is going next week, the first dealer asked me if I had tried the Cayenne???? to which I said "Do you not not want to sell me a car" I asked for details only to be told no brochures and that some would be posted which have not come. The second dealer last night said about the HST "Its a lot of money, I wouldnt buy one" I just cant be doing with this and it really has put me off, at Porsche the customer service has been brilliant and I have always been treated professiobally. These guys know nothing about a) their product and b) being professional. If they cant get the basics right what does it say about them. Please someone give me a contact in the East Midlands for a decent dealer.
Thanks

We're trying to get a group buy together on these..
We have one offer on the table so far offering a discount, and another one putting something together for us.

We have two deposits down already, another hovering (ready to go down) and yourself if interested. if we get over 5 orders, we get a step up in the deal too.

Let me know if interested.

Interesting that the dealer was trying to steer you away from the HST. Rumour has it (and this is by no means confirmed) that the HST has been shelved due to production issues....

I dont think it was anything sinister, I just dont think he was firing on all cylinders.

Was over that way on Saturday MDP.
Went in to Trinity, was looking at the Rimini RRS in the showroom. There was 3 sales guys sitting having a laugh and a chat, they did not get up for the 20 minutes that I was in there.

Could have nicked the 20" RRS wheels that they have got on the D3 in the showroom and they would not have noticed Rolling Eyes Wink

And yes before you ask, we were seriously looking at the Sport but decided we could not justify the price difference and the useful size / seat loss

Actually, you could sell the kids to make the 20k - then the fact you no longer have 7 seats wouldn't be an issue anymore. Just a thought...

But there's nothing worse than a pushy salesperson Wink

They're probably already been eaten by the previous customers waiting for some sort of attention from the sales folks Wink

Agree MDP that nobody likes a pushy salesman but to be completely ignored is a complete no no to me also Very Happy
