Brera
Re: Arrrrrrrrgggggg Brera
Things are looking up a bit. Although the parts are not due for another month, after a letter to Slough, communications have improved and they are getting a Brera to the dealer for Friday for us to use while ours is fixed. Have offer of a free first service and a few more sweetners. They are also replacing our alarm sensor as per another thread on this forum.
After the response today I feel a bit more loved.
Sooooooooo we'll have a Brera back , if not our own and at least someone has listened!
The wiring loom is still a far off hope for delivery though.

Jane

Re: Arrrrrrrrgggggg Brera
What a nice car - what a terrible experience! 9000miles. Just 9k? Most cars are just loosening up.....and yours is off the road for ages!

Not what Craig from Mango's wants anyone to be saying about the product but heyho this is real life and we can't just "big up" AR when we feel let down.


What a pathetic excuse! I can have a package in Turin, LA, Istanbul or wherever inside two days - heck a day in some cases from a poxy little company in Manchester. Why can't AR do it? Shoddy, shoddy, shoddy.


Crikey...I'm getting angry for you!

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

Under the hood, you and me are the same (Lightning McQueen)

Ti experience: Weeks -10. Miles -3898. Minor Niggles -0. Major Problems -0. Enjoyment 10/10. MPG (best) -46 (overall) -39.8
