Normal mileage for a brand new car
« on: March 02, 2016, 03:17:37 pm »
Hi everyone, newby here. Just got a phone call from my dealer and the car just delivered to them today and ready for collection on Monday. What was the mileage on your CX5 upon collection? The last time I had collected my sportage brand new was 30 on the meter and I am not impressed. Thanks.

Blimey,

You Guys are dead lucky, if you bought your CX5 via a Broker, (as I had the misfortune to do), if you lived in Truro, the car would be delivered from Aberdeen, or, perhaps from Falkirk, I kid you not..!

Brokers seem to delight in sourcing their cars as far away from the customer as possible.

A word of advice, avoid Brokers4Cars, my motor was delivered from Manchester to Watford, in the pouring rain, probably thrashed down the M6, was filthy upon arrival, with 200 miles on the clock, service book not stamped, no V5, tank literally dry, the guy simply couldn't wait to dump it on me and hightail back 'oop North..

I even had to flag him down outside my office window as he was clearly lost, the delivery address was a firm of vehicle leasing specialists that the car had been pre-registered to, (unknown to me, I was owner number 2)..!!

You couldn't make it up..??

Cat.

Sorry to hear your awful tale Catamong.

Just to balance it with my use of a broker (DrivetheDeal).  My dealer was in East Anglia (I live in Surrey).  They offered to drive it down on a trailer or I could go to them and they would cover the cost of train fare.  I opted for the later as I wanted to go over everything while it was still at the selling dealer's premises.  I think it's a bit of pot luck where the dealer is - my previous new car via the same broker came from West London so very easy.

Mazda run this electronic service record which showed my CX-3 as 8 miles at the pre delivery inspection. It actually had 47 miles on it which "upset" me somewhat. I reckon somebody had gone for a test drive in it. However, I've told them I want to be there when it is backed off the trailer when I get the new CX-5.

My PDI says 9 miles but it had 37 on the clock when I picked it up yesterday...  Should I complain?
