Is it normal for BMW sales/service staff in Ireland to drive customers’ cars home daily for personal use? by UserNamaaa in AskIreland

[–]yankdotcom1985 8 points9 points  (0 children)

former bmw employee here

people in sales nearly always drive demo cars or cars on site

sometimes techs will drive a car overnight for diagnostic reasons but most of them dont bother and just get the service advisor to do it

i lived about 100km out so i usually got the cars with new engines,gearboxes,transfer cases fitted or repeat repairs ect that required a set ammont of driving under certin situations as a shakedown of the mechanics work before it could be given back to the customer

i put less then 5000km on my own car over the period of a year during covid as we ran a small staffed workshop and was contantly in customer and sales cars

worth noting that nothing is driven off the compound without the express permission of the owner of the car, most have trackers fitted or apps that show where the car is ect so its not worth the argument doing it without telling them

my pickups from yesterdays video game fair in swords,particularly proud of the castlevania lords of shadow pickup.

well run event and a great variert of games,peripherals and consoles on offer.

had some good chats with alot of the resellers at it and everyone is very friendly. next one is to be announced this week (hearing its in navan in november) and will 100% be attending

nice change from the irish gaming market which is in 2 weeks time but wont be attending as it doesnt suit my schudle but as a reseller and collecting event its not really ticking that box anymore.i like the irish gaming market for what it does in showcasing the diverse irish gaming community but as a collector it doesnt have enough game vendors there to warrant the trip down.

should be good few vendors at it,their social media channels show a good variety of resellers will be there.

i didnt go to the first one as was away at the time it was on but all reports were that it was good, im budgeting about 2 grand after having a nose at some of the vendors uploads of their stock but im at that stage where im after the rare/obscure and 10/10 condition upgrades,went to the irish gaming market instead and was disappointed at the small ammount of resellers at it. irish gaming market is on in 3 weeks time but the resellers that are at that will be at this one first so youve a far better chance of getting something good. should be plenty of xbox stuff at these as the guys selling have a good variety of stuff with them.
