Went to one of my local dealers for oil and filter..
Me: I want some oil and filter for a Omega
Him: yes sir, what engine size
Me: Its a 3.2
Him: Oh, I didn't know they did a 3.2
Me: And how long have you worked for Vauxhall (sarcastically)
Thats probably why he could only find I can of oil and not 4 for the 4 for the price of 3 offer...

I often had a similar type of conversation with the dealer when I had my Senator.
ME: I'd like a ***** for a 24v Senator please. ;)
HIM: What engine size is that Sir? :-/
ME: Vauxhall only do a 24 valve Senator in one engine size ..... :-X

All dealers I have used have done that until I get them to place me on their system, helped now of course by the number plate records they seem to use. :y :y :y

Went to my local dealer last year, and having given up on asking for bits for the Monza, I asked for something for the mig (memory fails me as to what part it was).....
Dealer: "What car's it for"
Me: "An Omega"
Dealer: "....A what??"
There were 3 on the forecourt, all visable from the parts department ::)

I went to Halfrauds once for a king lead and he wanted my reg details. I had the old one in my hand. He wanted to order the 'correct' one for 3 days later. My car wasn't running. He couldn't get the concept that anything at least as long would do! >:( >:(
Asked where the bloody rack of all plug leads was, and found one in 2 minutes. :P

Their system doesn't require the staff to actually think for themselves. ;)
