I am trying to make contact with people who have taken out the above offer. My son did a deal on this last year but now finds that the goalposts are being moved by the garage. I wll be looking at the contract over the weekend but I would also like to hear of other peoples experiences.

Even if he didn't it's a valid question. If you insinuate that there is something amiss here then it's only fair to explain what it is and to substantiate it.
 
Why? I haven't named the garage. I'm not knocking the Nissan offer only the unnamed garage in question. I just want to hear of other peoples experiences of the Nissan offer, good or bad. If the problem is confined to this particular garage then we will obviously take it up with Nissan who I am sure will sort it out.
 
My impression from the original post was that you were complaining about Nissan's offer. You never mentioned that this related to a specific garage only.
 
"My son did a deal on this last year but now finds that the goalposts are being moved by the garage". I'm not quite sure what you wanted me to say. I suppose I could have added "by the garage that sold him the car".
 
well i heard of one person taking the deal, and i think where a problem may arise, is with the mileage..... as far as i know, there is a mileage limit on the offer. and if you drive over the limit there may be "terms and conitions etc.."
but i'm not sure what your own query is as per the previous posts

The thread title suggests that the problem is with Nissan. Anyway nobody is any the wiser as to how the goalposts were allegedly moved so - as mentioned above - perhaps the best thing is to read the terms & conditions of whatever agreement is involved in case they cover the issue already.

Grizzly it would be helpful if you could elaborate as Clubman and others have asked.

In case you haven't noticed this is a public forum where all members attempt to assist others, the more info provided the more other members can both assist and benefit everyone not just you.
 
Yes, this is exactly what I was getting at in my first post.

Just because we haven't taken up the offer doesn't mean that some of us will not be able to offer useful advice, or that others won't be interested to hear what has happened.

Now, unless you wish to provide us with more info, this thread is pointless and will be locked.
 
agree with ya ccovich, if someone ask a questions in a forum, you can't pick and choose who answers you, you are asking us all what we think !
The more info you provide the better, because if we think we may be able to help you out we may actually go out of or way, and make some additional enquiries for you....
 
I agree with what you say to a certain extent. I really was directing my question at those people who took up the Nissan Double Take offer. I am trying to avoid the usual answers from certain individuals who take pleasure in stating the obvious. For example. Somebody complains about the service in a restaurant. This individual in reply then says "Well did you complain to the manager". Or in my case "Did you read the terms and conditions". I know that I need to read the contract and stated this in my first post yet I was still given the advice to read "the terms and conditions".
I genuinely appreciate all the advice I have received over the years. I haven't always posted under the name "Grizzly" but in previous lives I have had threads effectively closed by people hijacking my query and turning it in to something else. There are people out there who cannot leave a thread run its course but feel the need to fill the vacuum with any type of response. I may have been guilty of this myself on occassions but I try and discipline myself.
Anyhow regarding the Nissan offer I do not have all the facts yet but when I do I will post as much information as I can. If there is something iffy going on I think I am am capable of sorting it out but by hearing from others directly involved in the offer I can find out if this moving of the goalposts is widespread or just confined to this particular garage.
 

pointless post, still in the dark and no further to knowing what the problem is. Also if we knew then we could warn others if they were thinking of taking it up.
 
OK-let's leave it at that-the point about more info etc. has been made.

Grizzly-I'm sure most of us would like to hear more of the facts.
 
I only suggested reading the terms & conditions because the lack of any specific useful information about the complaint precluded any more informed comment and I made this clear above. In any case quite often it's necessary to state the obvious. Just read many of the threads on AAM about all sorts of different issues which are often answered by seemingly obvious comments. If it is obvious the the person asking the question then no harm done and they can overlook the comments rather than bitching about them. To other readers interested in the topic such seemingly obvious comments may be helpful.
 
The Nissan Double Take offer stated that you would receive an identical car when you exchanged your 1995 car or better if there was an upgrade.
When my son purchased his 1995 car it had a sun roof. When he went for the 2006 model there was no sunroof. He was told that he would have air conditioning instead. When he said that he would prefer a sunroof he was told that he could have another 1995 model instead of a 1996 model.
 

I guess you mean 2005 and 2006.

Tbh, I think your son is being a little bit 'difficult'. He is effectively getting a brand new car for free and he is quibbling over a sunroof!!!
 
FWIW, I have found that air conditioning is much more preferable to a sunroof (my previous car had a sunroof, I now have aircon).
