Hi Ling,
Just a quick note of thanks to go on your website 
I know this is a bit delayed, but, I’ve been too busy enjoying my new Lexus and Kathryn’s Volvo to get in touch. I’ve noticed a lot of people say that you are better than your competitors, I don’t think this goes far enough.
You’re a better way of driving a car.
I’ve bought numerous new cars over the years, and every couple of years I dread having to get a new one, first you have to put up will all the drivel that comes out of the salesman’s mouths, then you have to take a kick to the nuts over the price of your trade in. You’ve then got to jump through hoops to get your car financed and fight off every advance of the ‘business manager’ to take a GAP or a Supaguard, or mats or something else to drive up the profit they’re making out of you.
I realised enough was enough, I sold my car privately and pocketed what value was left in it, I put that money in the bank then picked a new Lexus for myself and a Volvo for my wife. I filled in some simple forms, sent some proofs and then waited for the delivery day. They were both delivered on the exact day they were promised (even with a 12 week wait on the sexy new Volvo coupe). Ling kept in touch to let me know how things were progressing, I didn’t even have to make one phone call for an update (something un-heard of in the retail world).
Delivery was via low-loaders by professional, courteous people, and, there’s nothing better than having your new car delivered to the office, just a quick 15 minutes, sign some paperwork; no up-sell, no smarmy salespeople showing you how to work the radio as if you’re a moron, no false smiles or the false promise of a ‘come back anytime you need any help with something’.
I will never buy a new car again, I’ll stick all my money in the bank and pay a small monthly fee for the privilege of driving a brand new car every 2 years without the hassle or headache of dealing with the retail car market and the piranhas that work in it. Your website was like a sackload of cocaine wrapped in a marijuana shell which transfixed me until the day my new car arrived. I dread the day when the whole world wakes up to car leasing and I don’t feel as smug as I currently do.

Editor Note: Andrew, hehehehe, you are my 1,000th customer letter! AND you had 2 x cars!!! I thought you were very efficient replying to my emails and stuff, probably because you are one of those wierd Apple-Mac experts. I hope you and Kathryn have a great time in the two new cars, you are quite local so I may see you around! As reward for being 1000th letter, i send you 2 x sets of LING car mats . And as further bonus, I have found a picture of those pesky car dealer piranhas here…
