My 1st Audi........Work safe but keep broody women away!!

**Ben** · 01-03-2010,10:02 PM

When I took the car to Audi the other day to have the damage assessed, i took my son with me for some quality man time and to begin his education in to all things Audi.

We were there about 3 hours and he was very well behaved. We looked at some cars, we looked at some TV, we charmed the Lady's on reception and we interacted with an 8 month old baby girl who came in with her mother for a retest on her A4.

Just as we were finishing up and waiting for the wife to collect us, the branch manager came over and commented on how well behaved my son had been. I was gob smacked at the comment and thanked him very much as this was the 1st time I'd received a comment on my sons behaviour. I said that Daniel liked very much the silver car just round the corner by the stairs.

With this the Manager went away, shortly to return with said silver car.
Before we left I said to my son that we'll have to put it back before we go home. It was at this point that I was told the car was for my son to keep.

I'll not forget what he said to me...
"Its very easy and not always nice to take your money, it is however nice to give something back. The car is for your son, thank you for your business" or words to that effect.

Once again I was gob smacked a 2nd time.

When we collected my car today, we thanked the manager a 2nd time. We still can't believe it.

so I'd just like to say

Restores your faith in human nature (and Audi dealers

). Just goes to say that they're only human beings in dealerships, and if you treat them nice, they will be more forthcoming to you.

However Ben, just wait until little one is walking.

Mine was as good as gold until she realised that now she can walk, now anything else is 2nd best. I've still got the scars on my face after picking her up to cross the road on Sunday.

Shame Daniel didn't say he liked the R8!! You could have walked away with one of those

Seriously though- that is quality customer service, I can't imagine the toy Audi is cheap to buy.
