They haven’t actually started to fit the towbar yet – so they aren’t standing to lose anything I guess.
It’s a sale from a Skoda main dealer – so I have no qualms about telling them to do one and while the car is exactly the one we were after I’m considering telling them to stick it if they insist on the additional fees.
As Neilglover say’s ….
Another main dealer will get the same car transferred.
Whatever price you’re paying is just a number they make enough money on.
The towbar is really irrelevant … like floor mats etc. …
Your already paying above the odds for a main dealer … the reason presumably because you want peace of mind, simplicity and someone you can trust not to rip you off.
They are failing on the someone you can trust part from my perspective.
When was the last time you had one fitted to a modern car, especially if you want the proper electrics (which you probably do).
Yes but it doesn’t COST them this … they are not buying the tools/programmer they are just getting one of their mechanics who’s already employed to fit a tow bar.
