Hey all....
I'm curious as to what Roadside Assist is. I spoke to my dealerperson, and he wasn't entirely sure who it is through and what it exactly offers - he did think it was RACV premium (Total Care).
Can someone explain :
* What number you call
* What it's been explained to you as
* Is there any paperwork associated with it when you get the car ?
Looking at some of the elements of VW Insurance, they offer the same kind of thing, but more along the lines of when you've had an accident/stolen, as opposed to breakdowns.
They're pretty competitive on what they offer for insurance, it's either between them and my current CGU - who offer Rating 1 for the whole insurance period (year) as opposed to paying for one extra only (VW).
In terms of parking sensors (rear, which I'm getting) - does anyone know who supplies them and is it easier getting them aftermarket ? The system Barloworld is offering has a small screen indicator showing your distance to the object (goes near the rear vision mirror) - would love to see a photo of it
Also, there was a Bluetooth system (small screen attached on the dash) they were offering - but nobody could tell me what brand it was - it was only a special deal with the insurance, etc.....
BTW, I'm trading in a Mazda 3, which is due a service, but i haven't had a chance to get to it over the holiday break, etc - and upon speaking to the dealerperson today, he said don't worry about it as long as it's driveable - there is an engine indicator light coming on but it runs just fine - but there are a few things I would need to do to it that've been niggling me. Is it worth it, and worth doing the service due (it was a bigger one, the 80k) ?
I'm looking forward to the experience
