If what you said is true, then he absolutely deserves to loose his job.

In 1993 I was asked to arrange the purchase of two new diesel cars for a colleague and I. I visited the local Citroen dealer and asked to look at the (then) new Xantia. I was shown one and given a test drive, I asked for a quote for the two cars to be faxed to my office. I then went to the Ford garage to look at the Mondeo. There they could hardly be bothered to show me the car. They didn't have a diesel to show me - so no test drive. Again I asked for a quote to be faxed to me. On my return to the office the Citroen quote was there. I am still waiting for the Ford quote. Funnily enough we had two new Xantias. This wasn't a spotty youth, but a middle aged man with a rather too shiny suit.

he,ll need his job to pay the fines lol, regardless of outcome of meeting i,ve seen what car he has, and i,d say both front tyres below minimum tread plus his front window tints look to dark, so when next on duty i,ll be waiting on him and have a word

Just a car problem, eh !!

Try buying anything you like here in France. The sales folk are so laid back they're Horizontal. You could die just waiting to be served.

Ah, But you are supposed to move to France to embrace the gallic lifestyle, not import our 'I want it & I want it now!(actually I want it yesterday!!!!) and it'd better be better than my neighbours!! attitude

.

Went to a little M/C shop in Normandy last year. Opened at 10ish, lunch 12.30ish till 3ish still open till 8ish then home, wash, dinner, bar, bed.

I could live like that, wouldn't earn sweet fa, but money's not everything
