I got nothing at all from blackpool honda... in fact i barely had enought fuel to get me home!! all the honda dealers in my area are not that impressive, the best ever honda dealer i had the pleasure of dealing with was Riding & co of preston, they were originally called Riding & kok. They were in preston for a very long time, originally being a motorcycle dealers.... they had a very big site which incorparated not only honda (the brand they originally started with and was solely on the site to begin with) but also suzuki, skoda and subaru... so a big site! they could not do enough for you, whereas blackpool honda (part of the cox group) did nothing... i had a few problems with my jazz when i bought it, only a few were rectified, the car was sent out with 4 scored discs, and the rear brakes were not even working!! so the car was not checked properly. It was only upon inspection of the discs that i realised they were damaged. The rear brakes had rust on them for weeks.... it took a while, but eventually the car went in and all the discs and pads were replaced under warranty, i also had a issue with a crease in the passenger front door, which could have been fixed while it was in for the brake work, but no... it was left as it was when i bought it. There were marks on the front bumper too, which i was told, would be sorted but never was! they service book was conveniently lost when i was buying the car, when i got it, it was 6 months overdue for its first service! and only got a oil and filter change! the air filter was dirty, again i told them and they were not interested! so i have a book which should have 2 stamps in it, but only one..... ialso, when picking the car up the honda jazz handbook was missing and not in its wallet, and then (good job i checked!) on hand over, i went to the boot and my parcel shelf was mssing!! the hand over guy apologised and took one from his brand new jazz.... the car had been polished and was full of white wax between the joins and also they used a buffer on the paintwork which has left my black paintwork full of swirls and patches which look awful in sunlight, i have had to constantly work on it to get the shine back, even now its not right...and the interior was not up to the standard i am used too.... i wrote a big letter to the manager of the dealer explaining my gripes, but never did get a reply... so a warning to the wise, don't deal with them! i will probably go to greenacre honda next time... we shall see.
