I've just had a (thankfully) rare visit to a main dealer
...... to order a pair of aircon pipes for the 156.
Now, call me old fashioned, but shouldn't the bloke on the parts desk be able to identify which bits you need, rather than the customer having to work it out for themselves? Needless to say, they're only having my money for the parts, I'm not letting them anywhere near the car. -- Steve H 'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo' http://www.italiancar.co.uk - Honda VFR800 - MZ ETZ300 - Alfa 75 TSpark Alfa 156 2.0 TSpark - Fiat Marea 20v HLX - COSOC KOTL BoTAFOT #87 - BoTAFOF #18 - MRO # - UKRMSBC #7 - Apostle #2 - YTC # |

be able to identify which bits you need, rather than the customer having to work it out for themselves? Hi Steve, When I had my 146 1.6cc Boxer I had to get an oil filter for it. When I went to the Alfa dealer parts dept. and asked for an oil filter for a 1.6 boxer engine, the guy said "what's a boxer?" in dealers nothing surprises me. John,UK. |
