Make Sure You Check All Your Paperwork On Sunday I visited Jardine Motors in Stanway, Colchester interested on a Mercedes GLE. I had a test drive, loved the car so a deal was to be done. We went back and forward a bit with the price of my part exchange, an agreement was made that the difference we needed to make the deal would come off the forecourt price of the car. Some more dealings were done and we signed on the bottom line and left a £1000 deposit. Happy Days. When I got home I checked the paperwork, money had been added to the forecourt price! They had included a chargeable extra that I had voiced I didn't need before the deal was done. Increased the value before reducing it. My husband went back down the next day for an explanation and another deal was offered but really, I knew the score and no matter how many deals are to had now, the whole 'car dealership' trust was gone. I loved that car but feel Mercedes will never look after me. Such a shame, car dealers as a whole have such a bad name, this is the reason. You shouldn't have to be checking all the paperwork and figures for bad dealings.
