Mitsubishi Motorworld Oxford
As an addendum to my thread in the VR4 section concerning my radiator woes, when I broke down on the M40 my recovery company was planning to take me to the nearest Mitsi dealer, named above. Aware of the issue, the age of the car, etc, I phoned them to see what sort of service I would get on arrival. The phone converstaion went along the lines of:
MMO: can I help you sir?
Me: I've got a Galant VR4 and am being recovered to your place. Do you have a radiator in stock?
MMO: No. Couldn't get one before Tuesday at the earliest. (This is on a Friday afternoon, bank holiday weekend).
Me: OK. If I can get one bought to me over the weekend, can I fix the car at your place?
MMO: No. Cant allow you to use our facilities.
Me: Thats OK. I don't need them. I just need space to do the rad swap. I can do that wherever the car is dropped.
MMO: No. Sorry cant allow you to work anywhere on our site.
Me: So there's nothing you can do to help me until Tuesday, and I can't do the work myself?
MMO: Afraid so.
Me: Thanks. I'll make alternative arrangements.
Not exactly the most helpful service manager, considering my predicament, and not surprising to see them with a rating of 2.3 on the Evo list. Was just hoping that the replacement rad did fix the problem and that weren't the next local dealer should I have needed one later.
