Thumbs Up Re: Mangoletsi

Another thumbs up for Mango's from the GTVJim family.

Went over completely unplanned yesterday after shopping to allow MrsJim a closer look at the GT, Brera and GTV as part of my cunning offensive to get shut of the Picasso and avoid her having a pointless off-road barge and give me something to enjoy at weekends and show up at AO meets without feeling a fraud.

Asked for Craig - only name I've heard on here - but he was off, so got chatting to young Kevan. We were totally upfront about why we were there and I have to say he was brilliant. No pushiness, no hard selling, some very honest comments about pros and cons of certain models. We must have been in there approaching an hour and a half and even though the showroom had a surprisingly high number of potential customers he never once looked or sounded fed up or anxious to get on with a potentially better prospect.

We've arranged to get a test drive of a GT 2.0 JTS in a few weeks (it was persisting down at the time). Whilst we aren't yet decided, the GT has just leapt up from rank outsider to be a joint favourite with MrsJim.

She hates salesmen and makes her mind up about them in the first 10 seconds. She liked Kevan's approach.

She also thinks the GT is very Heavy hints about a 3.2 were dismissed however with wifely authority!

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.
