Went to pick up the new car this morning , was around the corner from the dealer when the mobile rang , was the sales lady , she says im real sorry but the car wont be ready till friday arvo as its getting detailed , .!!

WTF they have had the car for 2 weeks and they stuff me around on the day i go to pick it up ! Aparently the manager screwed up the pick up date

Oh well have waited for the car for about 8 weeks now spose 1 more day wont hurt :o

I'd look over that car *very* carefully before taking delivery of it - sounds like something may have happened to it at the last minute that needed some 'detailing' to sort out...
