Ian says... Ling, not only are you funny, intelligent and beautiful (WAH!!!! YOU ARE ON DRUGS! - Ling); do I get discount next time? (NO - Ling) ...but you also supply extremely cheap new cars. What more could a man ask for? Your husband is one lucky guy.
If you are reading this and ummming or errring whether or not to go ahead and rent a new car from Ling, then errr and ummm no longer and just do it. You will not be disappointed. Just one word of advice though - Ling possesses a nuclear missile and will know where you live. I now live in permanent fear and get scared when I hear a plane in the garden.
Delivery of my Citroen C2 was good - very friendly and helpful. Now, where's my free lunch???

Wah! Another IT manager. Andrew, this is spooky, as my friend who runs my web server has the same name, the same girlfriend name and is also an IT Manager. How weird is that? You had the cheapest Zafira in the UK, I hope you are dead happy with it. Thanks for being a perfect customer ...and once again I am honoured to have the praise from an Information Technology professional. -

Catriona says... In a sea of anonymous car leasing firms offering car deals which don't actually exist, Ling is a breath of fresh air.
The service is personable, efficient and a little bit cheeky. Best of all though, a good deal cheaper than her competitors. All my queries and paperwork were dealt with super-fast, and I got my car within about 3 weeks. I will definitely come back to Ling for my next car.

Thanks for the kind comments, I am glad you were happy with my service (cheeky and all!). I must say there was a little confusion on delivery from the dealer, but you got the car as soon as they sorted themselves out with very little delay. See you in 2 years!

Jake says... Ling, I really enjoyed watching you on Dragons' Den and it opened my mind to car leasing. Then, I had a browse on your hilarious website and chose a SAAB 9-5 Estate for just £280 per month over 2-years.
It took about 4 weeks from my expression of interest to receiving my SAAB. The delivery was excellent, friendly, courteous and informative about my new car. You kept me posted all the way along and guided me away from any potential pitfalls. Very easy, very fun and I will be very much back again!

Simon says... Great company to deal with. Nothing is a trouble. Excellent person (Ling) and excellent service. The car... I think it was a new Mazda MX-5... I have not seen it at all since my father took it out for a spin. I am sure he has fallen in love again! Good job he left me the keys for the Ford Focus or I would have been back on the bus. The Mazda was delivered on time, to the right address. Excellent!

You are very good repeating customers, as we write this I am sorting out another car for your dad. -

Andrew says... Ling,
I just want to say KEEP STICKING IT UP THE BIG MANUFACTURERS. You were OVER £100 per MONTH CHEAPER(my red ink - Ling) than the main Honda dealer on my new Honda FR-V (which is a great car!). Your service is second to none. Your own Honda supplier delivered my car on time, excellent. I will recommend you to everyone I know. Thanks for your great service. Talk to you in two years."
P.S. I have just driven the M62 near Huddersfield and spotted your subtle advertising in the form of your infamous rocket launcher, keep up the good work!

Editor Note:
Hahaha. Yes. I am MUCH cheaper than Honda dealers. You have saved £2,600 by getting your new car from me, instead of from a Honda dealer. It is overhead question, how do you think they manage to run the very posh garages and pay all the staff? This applies to ALL makes, by the way, the dealers are fixated by posh showrooms and coffee machines. Customers pay for all that rubbish and they pay for the expensive cars the staff swan around in. Obvious, really. Thanks for the delivery comment, I will pass it on to my tame Honda supplier who supplies cars at cost price to me.
And for everyone else reading this, here is a picture of my Missile Truck out on the windswept moor on the M62. Great, eh? Hope everyone appreciates how much I spend on advertising, compared to dealers. After 4 years at 25% depreciation, this truck will have cost NOTHING, so no cost to pass on to customers. Same with my bus. Clever? - Ling

Joanne says... "Ling was helpful, efficient and very through. She made the process very simple and kept me informed every step of the way. Unfortunately the Mazda 5 arrived with a scratch."

Editor Note:
Hmmm, well, I must say occasionally this (the scratch) happens. It is not pleasant but it always gets fixed. Your car was checked on delivery by your husband who missed the scratch... I asked you to beat him up for me for not seeing it, and I subsequently offered to pay for the Dent Devil man to sort it out FOC. You were kind enough to send me a photo of your husband after you had finished educating him:
Subsequently, I have written a full guide to checking cars on delivery and a copy goes out with all finance documents to help customers. But this scratch is a very rare event, as dealers are usually more careful and they know I will terminate them if it happens more than once. Enjoy the MX5, get the top down and the sun cream on and enjoy yourself, you deserve it, Joanne! -

Rebecca says... "Hi Ling,
I just wanted to say my MX5 arrived last Tuesday as promised (I'm sure you would have known sooner if it hadn't).
I've got to say I love my new MX-5, had my lid off a few times already and they say we are going to have a great summer - "bring it on!". I wanted to say thank you for an all round great service. Having never leased before I was a little wary but your response to my questions reassured me and the information on your website was a huge help. I cannot fault any part of the process...
1. You couldn't be beaten on price.
2. You responded to every email I sent within minutes - I even sent emails at 7am and 9pm and yet you still responded - what are you... superwoman? (no, just a bit of a saddo workaholic - Ling) 3. The whole process took approx 3-weeks from initial enquiry to receiving the car.
4. And to complete the service, a really friendly gentleman delivered my car just when you promised.
If anyone is thinking of leasing, I would recommend Ling 100%. Thanks again"
Editor Note:
Rebecca, for security I have no problem at all in withholding your full address. Thanks for the lovely letter! It all went so smoothly partly because you were so efficient with your own communication and paperwork! You got the cheapest MX5 in the country! Well done for acting so quickly and confidently -

You are an Engineer, Paul... so you appreciate the quality of the design of the MX-5. A shame Mazda UK have to be so nasty to me. Never mind, I still manage to supply and all my customers are very happy, as you show. I am sure Mazda will see sense, one day, and stop persecuting me :) There is one particular dealer who hates me for "stealing" their customers, they think everyone should pay full price, through the nose and they insist Mazda UK twist the knife into me. Thanks for being a great customer -

Nigel says... "Hi Ling, We would like to say a very big thank you for your help and assistance in leasing our Vauxhall Astra SRi. This was the first time leasing a car and your help and advice was invaluable throughout! Your friendly and professional service was exceptional, as was your relentless sense of humour.
When we originally embarked on leasing a car we trawled the Internet for the best price, and we came across LINGsCARS.com, run by a crazy Chinese lady (!) with an interest in nuclear missiles. However, I'm glad we did, as we found not only the best price on the car we were looking for, but also a personal service which was second to none. Ling responded to all our emails almost immediately, giving advice where needed and always signing off with the obligatory Chinese humour.
All in all we were fully informed throughout and the car was delivered politely and excellently on the set date. I would highly recommend LINGsCARS.com to anybody.
Ling - don't lose the sense of humour and keep up the good work :)"

I note your comments on Mazda withdrawing their support and suggest they contact your customers to find out why so many people prefer to deal with you direct (I doubt if I would be driving the MX-5 if I was not aware of your web site).
The car was delivered excellently, the delivery driver was super friendly - explaining everything."

Colin, so ironic you talk about Mazda, as it was your own damn idiot local dealer called Hodgsons Mazda who complained to Mazda UK to get me blacklisted on their illegal and restrictive cartel supply system. It is ironic because you will probably take your car to them for parts and service... so they will profit from me supplying you a Mazda! They are quite stupid, eh? The more Mazdas around, the better for them, they should be pleased with me - not upset :) Thanks for your support -
