| Ballamy's BUST!!! Well there's disappointment for central south coast Skoda owners as the City Gates Skoda dealerships all appear to have gone into receivership. This includes City Gates Skoda @ Chichester, Ballamy's @ Shoreham and Saltdean Garages @ Peacehaven. I went to Ballamy's on Friday hoping to find out when the new Octavia VRS diesel will arrive. All staff and cars on the forecourt have disappeared overnight. This must have sent Skoda UK into a flat spin so close to the launch of an important new car which may represent a large new market share if the VRS diesel lives up to expectations? I think my nearest Skoda dealer is at Copthorn Crawley. Skoda UK are now urgently seeking a new franchise locally apparently (what a mess)

| Re: Ballamy's BUST!!! I've already posted this in another thread but if you've placed an order with CityGates or one of their other dealers give Grant Lane or Steve Cross a call at Sparshatts of Fareham. They are working closely with Skoda to ensure that customers recieve their cars and for the same deals as the other dealer gave.
