No problems at all, had 2 from them, you can even get the cars serviced at any vat registered garage, any warranty work can be done at your local skoda dealer
if your thinking of the Octavia go for the A5 TDI model with the 115bhp engine or above, it has more room in the rear, or you could go for the lower bhp and get it chipped, apparently the DSG gear box is very good, with no lose of miles per gallon.
DO NOT GET THE SDI MODEL THE GEARBOXES FECK UP
All of the Skoda dealers are doing good deals at the moment as well, my local one is offering the same deal as the taxi centre, for £2k less and you can upgrade from a classic to ambient or ambient to top of the range for free
if you want a bigger car the superb is just that, but the down side is the boot even though is big the access is restricted.
You do not have to take payment protection out, as you can get it a lot cheaper on line, there by reducing your payments

Your local Toyota dealer will more than likely match any deal, just ask them, take any taxi adverts with you, for proof, any dealer should be able to match the taxi centre or any other taxi dealer, even on no deposit, its sales they want. :wink:

At the end of the day The Taxi Centre, Cab Direct, Fowlers, Patons are all just glorified car shops that will get you any car you require.

If the car goes wrong then it really doesn't matter where you bought it from, as the warranty is via the manufacture.

Best bet is to ring them all, get a price over 3/4/5 years, and buy from the cheapest. :wink:

Quite correct Sussex, but if we could only let Ell Tell back for a while i am sure he would have something unconstructive to say as per usual.
Do you think that TDO will let him back :wink: :wink: :wink: :lol: :lol:

I'm quite sure the folks behind TDO are more than happy to leave him where his is. :D

Alas I don't think the folks where he is are as happy. :D

TDO could give him a column all to himself, preventing him from posting on any of the other subjects then we could have a laugh when we are feeling down :wink: :lol: :lol:
