As for the loan car, they also do have them. But since I did not give them much notice, they did not have one immediately available. I could have waited for one, but since I had some time up my sleeve, and there was a convenient train both nearby and timely, I decided that I would take that instead. Whilst I try to avoid the Melbourne city train network, I quite enjoy riding on country trains

Cheers,

yes, it is nice when a busy establishment can fit you in, even though they're heavily booked. And they did get it done quickly too, which is nice.

I guess the reasons I've become a loan-car nazi are 3-fold.

1.- the first time I ever went to a mini dealer and asked for a loan car they told me they were only for BMW customers. so I changed dealers to someone who promised me one every time.

2 - When you have their car, there's an extra incentive to get it done quickly for you. (well debatable probably because the longer you have their car, the more BMW pays them so forget this one )

3 - and the most important is because I did it once - I caught a train to work. I kid you not - it took about 2 and a half hours. you reckon the Melbourne train system is shocking.....I'd love you see the crap they give us. (sydney)

I love Warsaw. Where else can you hug a pole?

If you have any information, any information at all, please contact me as I'm writing an encyclopaedia.
