1532 LETTERS! More customer letters than any other car sales site IN THE WHOLE WORLD! - Ling
This Audi A6 Saloon 2.7 Tdi V6 177bhp Le Mans Saloon is the second car I have leased through LINGsCARS, and I can safely say that I would not consider using another leasing firm. Your no-nonsense approach is very refreshing and it is clear that your excellent support and customer service is based on a genuine interest in your customers' satisfaction.
Thank you for making the process pain free and pleasurable, without any of the usual lease company flannel. Simple things like returning calls and giving unprompted regular updates on my order are greatly appreciated. I look forward to ordering my next lease vehicle from Lings in 2010 when my existing lease completes.

Keith says... LINGsCARS were great to deal with from start to finish, communication between Ling and ourselves was excellent. She always kept us up to date with how things were progressing. I will definitely use Ling again. Delivery of my 9-seat Tepee was excellent, good service and communication.

Editor Note:
These Peugeot Tepees have been a nightmare. The factory has had mega-problems, demand (from Taxi firms) has been through the roof and Peugeot UK have been totally hopeless at organising things. The dealers have been pulling their hair out and eventually I simply removed the car from my price list. I must say: SOME CUSTOMERS HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTED OVER TEPEE SUPPLY. It is only fair to mention that...
However, Keith was lucky, I managed to secure him a car and he is enjoying it. thanks, Keith! See you when the contract expires. -

I have recommended you to everyone! So easy, plus on-time delivery - even rang me to give me the time of delivery the night before - the car is brilliant. Excellent. I will be with you for years!

Just to say that my beautiful Lexus IS was delivered on Friday. Checked it over thoroughly and it was faultless, then went away for the weekend in my new car. Thanks for the lovely Ling car mats and I will be back in 2 years for my next car.

Heather says... The Kia Magentis has arrived and we are extremely pleased with it. I'm out showing it off to my brother! Just one thing though, the car arrived unwashed so had to go to the car wash straight away, which the very nice man who delivered it dealt with once Brian showed him where the car wash was. Brian then did the one thing that I'm sure lots of people (or husbands) do, signed the paperwork while waiting to go into the car wash without checking it over. Just to let you know there is a very slight dent over the rear drivers side wheel arch. I know you warned us not to do this but... anyway just so its on record.
I would love to leave positive feedback etc on blog or forum for you. Is there any in particular I should log on to. Once again thank you so much for such a straightforward transaction. For people like me who are intimidated by car dealerships this is the perfect solution. Be back in two years!

Editor Note:
Heather, well... can I use this as a small lesson for my customers? Cars should always be checked BEFORE you sign the delivery note :) ...I will do my best to get this dent fixed as soon as you send me a digital photo of it. But I can't promise, you know the dealership will deny it. However, glad you are pleased and does everyone know you got an £18k car for just £170 a month??? WOW! Fantastic, plus it is V6 Auto! Badge snobs take note! I have complained about the "unwashed" bit, but in early Feb, sometimes they do get dirty on the route.
Heather replied again: (Many thanks Ling for all your patience and time. You have been highly recommended to everyone that knows I have a new car. P.S. - just for the record I don't blame the delivery guy in any way and am still highly delighted with the car, dent or no dent. Can't say that enough. Regards once again, Heather.) -

Paul says... If only all companies were as committed as LingsCars. After ordering my Citroen C4 Cool, Ling found that they had stopped production of that model. These things happen. However she managed to find me one of the last ones in the country and in my choice of colour too. Top marks to the dealer too, the car turned up as promised in time for me to take it to work. I'll be back in two years!!

Oooooops, gosh, that's not funny. Bloody Vauxhall save money and weight by including a can of gunk to spray into the tyre, not a spare wheel. This also saves CO2 emissions. However, not always so good when you have a puncture, eh? Anyway, I'm so glad you are happy, Paul. See you in 2 years! -

Robert says... After being a "wage slave" and driving a company car for 34 years, I became self-employed last year. Deciding on contract hire, I settled on LINGsCARS based on value. Having dealt with Ling and her team, I found that it's about more than just price, it's about excellent customer service delivered in a fun way! Good delivery of my new Alfa 159 Sportwagon, from Scotland, but very good phone support on delivery.

Edward, well, yes... the finance companies are a bit stuffy. They are slow to respond and sometimes difficult to deal with - I know this, I spend my life dealing with them. They are also sticklers for perfect information. But they are supplying cars at a distance and it can be a big risk for them. Hope you enjoy the Fabia, I have been to your part of the UK, I call in at Eyemouth for an ice cream and some fish, when I am on my way back from Edinburgh. Lovely! -

I am delighted with my Citroen Grand Picasso C4 and I am amazed at just how stress-free the whole "leasing" affair is. However, the downside is that I now miss our regular email contact! The delivery driver was professional, punctual and polite. Great. Thanks again, it has been a pleasure to deal with your company.

Clive says... Having been a user of PCP type rental for a few years I knew what to expect, Ling was very professional as were all of her staff I spoke to, Nothing was too much trouble, every query I had was answered quickly and in a friendly manner.
Ling does what she says, and that gave me confidence. I would'nt bother to go anywhere else next time, as the service with Ling is exceptional.
Excellent delivery - the Volvo XC90 was promised before noon and duly arrived at 9.30am (from Pxxxxxxxxx). The delivery man was a miracle worker given how difficult it is to get a large vehicle to where we live.
It is so refreshing to deal with honest, professional people who's word is their bond. I'll be back very soon when my other Merc is due for replacement
Editor Note:
Clive, well, just managed to get this car to you on time. So pleased you are satisfied. I really did my best to make sure this delivery fitted your timescale. Enjoy driving the Volvo XC90! -
