My personal advice to anyone in the Inverness or Highland region needing main dealer servicing - I will be avoiding Corrie Motors from now on, although there is not a great deal of choice around.

A series of poor experiences with my Amazon, culminating in 5 separate attempts to find aircon system leak.  The views of others I have spoken to and have used them in the past confirms my own opinion.  In my opinion, they simply do not care, and are the main reason why I have today replaced my Toyota with a Nissan.

Shocked

Bloody Hell Joinerman!  That's a bit harsh!

I hope that the techies and others from main dealers who regularly drop in here to help out aren't offended by a sweeping statement like that  Embarassed

Same old thing I believe ... The vast majority ARE excellent, but the odd 'bad apple' ends up giving them all a bad reputation.

Yes, to be fair one does come across a good main dealer - Calterden in Inverness, the BMW franchise, is superb in every way but overall I have had far superior service from local and/or specialist motor vehicle repairers.

So that's why my wife is sticking to BMW.  Toyota: take note.

If you want generally poor service with arrogance to match-buy a Land Rover (of any sort).I've just paid £739 for a 24,000 service on a TD5 Commercial.
