Why thank you kind sir,:xmas:
Its just that I`m not the brightest penny in the till.  Would need to brush up on "COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS"
Large cities overawe me,tend to keep to hill and dale, where my minder lets me roam free,knows I can do no harm out there talking/rambling to myself.

Re: Mangoletsi
Mangoletsi is an excellent dealership but why aren't there more like it and nearer than Knutsford [it's not really even in Knutsford!]

Re: Mangoletsi
DA we used to have three dealerships in the NW Caledonia in Warrington and Preston both sh!te IMO and Mango's.
Last year ARUK stripped a lot of dealers of their franchises because they where so poor.
The dealership network is a bit thinner because they are now looking for Quality of service that's why Mango's survived
Thanks for posting why not join us at our next meet
We always welcome a new face

Re: Mangoletsi
used to be 3 caledonia's - preston, warrington & manchester, reg vardy in stockport, lythgoe in rochdale and i believe there was one in bolton as well.
now just mango's. perfect example of survival of the fittest. the others were evidently rubbish. caledonia (from personal experience) were sh*te.
