SOOOOOOO... I am on the verge of telling them to get stuffed.
On my way to the dealership for pick up my mum calls me, and she tells me: "they want another $1250 for a deposit because the finance company won't finance the full ammount for the 2nd hand bike. But your dad told them to stuff that and re-apply for a new bike." I said thats fine. She then replied: "But you have now all three colours you can choose from because they have one of each in stock." I told her I am 2min away and to let me think about it while driving there.
Got there and asked if they had a red and black one and the salesman said yes but he'd have to check to see if he can pull the lid of the crate so I can see it.
We re-applied for a brand new one and I then picked the colour I actually wanted which is the red and black.
No response from the finance company in an hour and 45min. So we eventually had to leave the shop because they close at 5:30.
Now I have to wait until tomorrow to see if I can get finance for a brand new one straight out of the crate.
In the mean time, my sister was signed off on hers, rego done, insurance done everything done while I was waiting for the finance company to reply yay or nay.
Then to top it all of, my helmet was said to be there thursday last week, it is still not there.
So at the moment I am really rethinking this even though I know I want it because I want to get back into riding and being outdoors over weekends etc, but at the same time, we have been dealing with this dealership since 2009 and never had any of these issues.
RANT OVER
Time for a cold beer and some dinner.
