And?
You can have the swishest building and all the equipment and a model of every car. But the training and the faults they put into cars to test people, are NEVER like the ones actual customers get. Customers and Technicians know these cars as they see every fault. Ivory towered training facilities, and Instructors who spend all day reminicing (sp?) and telling stories inbetween dragging out a day long course to 3 days dont compare to the "real world"
that is soooo true,,,, but its NOT just bmw who do that ha ha ha ha
alex ill NEVER defend ford,,,, as not only are they behind the times they are building the new cars out of old jag/volvo/mazda parts
just like the jag is the old aston ect
ask any proper old school volvo customer what they think of the new range and they will say the interior is nicer but the cars total wank
theres a good reason ford is loosing money,,, its cause they aint giving the customer what they want, they thought they could never loose and now they are loosing and proper struggling to get back in the game
not too mention they just rip there customers off with the price of parts going up each year on old models YET the new stuff like focus ST brake discs are 25 quid each NEW !!!!
