Once again thumbs up for the Parts department. They had a replacement resistor pack on the shelf the other week.

I contacted them lastnight to order a replacement rear wiper motor and although they had none in stock he checked the stock at the nearby VW garage in Gloucester for me whilst I was on the phone, and then offered up the phone number for me to ring and reserve it.

Was back at Bamfords for the 100K mile service and (2nd) MOT on my trusty Furby. Excellent service as always - within minutes of me handing over the keys the car was in the MOT bay, a courtesy call a couple of hours later advised that the car was ready. I was given change from 300 quid - not bad I thought - and the Furby passed it's MOT without incident .

Had a pleasant chat with Mr Bamford himself - unusual for the owner of a main dealership to be chatting to customers I would think, but indicative of his own and his company's friendly approach to service. Had a more lengthy chat with Craig (Service Manager) who reassuringly is a genuine car enthusiast - about last weeks Wyedean rally. I'm really hoping the Mk 2 Furby vRS is worth the wait as I don't fancy swapping brands and getting cr*p service from a different main dealer.

Haven't been that impressed with Robert Bamford - bought new Fabia 1.4TDi in July 2008 and didn't hear from them again. No follow up "how is the car" which would've been a friendly thing to do.

Have also discovered that their service costs are high - paid £207 for 10k and £253 for 20k. Been quoted £130 (10k) and £180 (20k) by Grey Gables (Witney) so no prizes for guessing where the next service will be done.
