Good for you Buksi

If these lazy good for nothings put a little effort into their jobs, they could make a real killing!

One Toyota dealer in BKK wouldn't give me even a brochure, in fact wouldn't even get out of his chair (their chairs actaully, as there were about 5 of them).

I've buoght 3 new vehicles in Thailand, Volvo, Ford and Isuzu. The main reason for all of them was quality of service and support.

I can say that Volvo is outstadning, but expensive, Ford people are excellent and Isuzu, nothing to complain about.

Several Toyota places I have experinced a 'who gives toss' atmsophere.

with regard to Mitsu, I did visit a showroom when I was looking for th ewife's car, and I ahve to say, they were helpful.

Just goes to show how a little bitof efort on the part of the Cusotmer Interface can reap rewards

Absolutely, I think the job description for salesperson in Thai is as follows:

"Look up from the TV occasionally, smile 57% of the time, chat to your mates for long periods, ignore the customers, do as little as you can and pretend you're busy when the boss is about."

It amazed me really, I've never bought a new car before but have been into a lot of show rooms dreaming. Usually they jump on me ... with the exception of this country where they really didn't give a toss.

As said the Honda lot were eager to sell but not to accommodate, ie help us get rid of the old car. The Ford and Toyota dealers point blank refused and fitted the above sales description. The Mitsu offered the best service, took the old car in part exchange and helped me with all my "extras" I wanted on the new one. The only thing they wouldn't do is let me have it on finance, but you can't win em all eh!
