Skoda unlikely

[Schroder]

Wah damn sad man Look like I cannot recieve delivery of my Skoda forever. After almost 10 months wait Skoda now tells its 60 outstanding buyers with JTA that they can place new order with new distributor and they have nothing to do with JTA.

Hi! there, Schroder,

 

What's happened now for you, any news on the deposit that you've paid? I'm sorry to hear about what's been happening to all those like you. I hope you'll get everything sorted out soon.

Deposit is one thing. Just wanted to drive a Skoda. But now the parent company tell people like us to make a new order to buy their cars. Stating it has nothing to do with them that JTA has lost its distributorship and now the new agency owned by Exclusiv can give us our cars if we give them a fresh order. Wow Image. Heartless creatures Got money also wont place a new order. Never thought that they will just abandon all they loyal customers. Think I'll just stick to my good old bicycle. No COE , No Road Tax, No Parking/ Speeding Fines but may get stolen............

Sorry to hear that, man - just curious on how they parent company contact ppl like yourself. Did they call you or wait till you call them and then spring the news on you ?

[Schroder]

Jus have to chase and chase them for it. Let me tell you its harder then chasing a girl. Lucky for me we have a very helpful and active group of people. Now we'll probably go to the press and all media to voice our plight. [angelic]

Hi! there, Schroder,

 

I guess you can put it as an experience, even in a small dot of a country that we stay in, when the business sense of big companies is lacking, they'd get a bigger ton of bricks to crash down on them.

 

For my old bicycle, the last time I checked, must be a million spiders plus don't know how many other insects made a home of my cycling shoes. Not to mention that last year, when I rode to my office in Jurong, from Yishun, I thought I'd die along LCK, by the time I reached office, too tired to even think of riding back home another 30k. The bane of old age, when not even a Colnago jersey will make it seem like when I'm back in the twenties.

You remind me of those days when I used to cycle to my office in Jurong from Bedok. But I feel so much healthier then. Those were the days.

Hi! there, Guyver,

 

It wasn't because I was trying to be on, as my car was in JB for spray-painting & upholstery. So, I thought, if it'd only take about 40 mins to get to Jurong in my car, I'd probably take 2 hrs on my 20 year old racer, but by the 1st hour, I immediately punchek, no more energy along LCK, didn't know the road was so long, I thought, mati how to reach office in 2 hrs., even with energy drink also not enough. By the time I reach Jurong, Lokyang, no energy to eat lunch.

On or not, Paul, you've got my respect for actually considering, and then pulling it off....

Hi! there, Renegade,

Wanna buy over my Skoda Octavia????

[Renegade]

So, did your friend take the bike back with you or did you have to do the return trip another day?

[Pauly75ts]

Hi! there, Renegade,

 

Of course I made a return trip with the bike, after I got my car back, so it can ride piggy back home.
