jeremyadamson Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Hey mate......just a thought for anyone on here who might be looking for a used R32......you might wanna do everyone a favour by giving out the Reg Number so they can avoid it when it gets hoofed out? Presumably Ridgeway will be putting it on the forecourt at some point as an approved used, and from the sounds of it, it should be avoided like the proverbial. I was really amazed at your cars problems......Ridgeway supplied mine too.....and it's been completely faultless to such an extent that in 5000 miles, it hasn't been back to them once for anything. Haven't even had to phone them and ask a question. Weird. Good luck with your new one....J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Yes its just a bad case in my opinion....... there might be more but i doubt all of the R32`s produced will suffer all these problems at once. Riz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 <font color="red"> Ok guys, as requested. Gave the Lemon back today & here are the "not so" vital statistics. Reg: RG52HXP, Spec: Silver with Delta & Black leather. Mileage: 31649. Please note - this car should have had a service at 28k. But I refused on two fronts. Why should I pay for it when I'm due to give the car back? And also in the hope it would speed Ridgeway up in getting me a replacement. So check it's service history!! In my opinion you're best off avoiding this car!! </font> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Cheers for the info Al..... best of luck with whichever car you go for next. Riz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyadamson Posted December 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2003 Al.....respect to you mate for taking them to task over it, and thanks for the info. Delighted to read you've got a new 'sorted' one. Obviously, VW have rung this out to the very last. But, how would you rate Ridgeway in the way they tried to deal with your problems?? J.

Smudge Posted December 6, 2003 Report Share Posted December 6, 2003 Honestly? A bunch of [censored] incompetent [censored] [censored]!!! Well two individuals certainly fit that description IMHO. Considering their "executive dealer" title, I was simply amazed at some of the service levels & reponses I witnessed. I work in sales, & if I treated any of my customers the way I was treated at times, I'd be looking for a new job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
