"I found Ling's website easy to navigate, informative and fun. I enquired about a car, received my quote and then ordered my car - a VW Passat. From day one, communication was excellent, information was clear and most importantly for me, I got the car I ordered on the day Ling said I would.
I've saved money on a buying a car. Depreciation is a killer and I know I can easily change it at the end of my lease."

Steve says... "Hi Ling
Just a note to add to your collection from satisfied customers.
We have just taken delivery of our new (cheap!! - Ling) Skoda Fabia - it's fantastic, no hitches or problems, thanks. It is refreshing to deal with someone who is on the customer's side for once in the car industry. I know you have really earned your money on this deal - what with all our enquiries - but it really is appreciated and we WILL be back."

Yes, Stephen, you changed your mind about fourteen times, but I FORGIVE YOU. You were actually a very pleasant customer and you have previous experience of dealing inside the motor trade. There are some terrible practices going on, I do my best not to be bullied or beaten up by them. With support of customers like you, I know I will win. At the moment I am having dirty tricks played on me by a BIG player in this industry. One day I will give them bloody nose, revenge best cold, eh? Hope you and Susan enjoy damn cheap Skoda Fabia -

I kept thinking that we should be doing more, but when the simple paperwork was completed all I had to do was wait for the Megane CC. A very good service. Car was delivered at 9.00 on the exact delivery date. Excellent."

Many thanks for sorting out the Jeep Grand Cherokee, I still find it odd that when I ring up LINGsCARS you answer the phone in person. I'll be back next year. Please don't send any more sweets, they are not nice."

Whoa, David, you run an Art Gallery! I give you hyperlink. Hyperlink is like Government honour, but you don't have to bribe me. You will be able to get loads of paintings inside a Jeep Grand Cherokee, they are very big and posh. I answer the phone in person, as it is my phone and I am a person - even though I am Chinese. Is that so astonishing? Maybe you have not seen so many Chinese people using "electric voice" - Dian Hua is Chinese for telephone. I understand sweets are horrible, yes, I choose them specially... but most customers are too polite to mention it - Ling
Everything was arranged over the internet very simply. My new Renault Clio was delivered without problems and the dealer was excellent, I was well pleased with the service.
I will recommend LINGsCARS to anyone wanting to contract-hire vehicles. It was a great day when I found LINGsCARS.com, very well done Ling!"

Paul says... "Dear Ling,
I would just like to take a second to thank you personally for the superb service that you provided recently when you supplied me with my new Mazda MX5. As a customer who expects excellent customer service, all I can say is that I would wholly recommend your company to anyone who feels the same.
The car was delivered to me within ten days of making the initial proposal at the time and date expected in A1 condition. I can only thank the dealer, ***** of ***** for fulfilling all of their promises in a way that we don't see much of in the UK!
Ling, I would advise anyone who is in the market for a new car to check out your web-site first. I was highly sceptical at first that you could provide what you said at such competitive prices but now I'm convinced. I'll be coming back to you in two years time for my next car! Thanks."

Paul, sorry to obscure the dealer's name; I really have to respect the dealer's choice not to be named to be putting out these very cheap cars. Well, thanks for a lovely letter - but with respect to Sally's letter (below) I should say that I have as much control about your 10-day turnaround than I had over Sally's car delay. I'm really pleased you are happy, Paul. -

Editor Note:
Hmmm, this was a simple case of the car taking longer to arrive than Nissan first thought. I often say that this is the one area of my business that I am not quite in control of; I cannot build/transport/make the cars arrive any quicker than they do. I can put a rocket up a dealer's ass, sure, but that only helps after the car has arrived from a manufacturer. If you bought the car cash from a Nissan dealer, I'm afraid that your Nissan Note would not have arrived any faster than it did. Sorry for the inconvenience, Sally. However, look at the letter above and the one below and you'll see this isn't always the case -

Paula says... "This Audi A3 must be the best deal I have ever had!
What a fantastic, funny, honest lady Ling is. Nothing is too much trouble and everything is done at the speed of light EXACTLY as ordered. My new Audi A3 was provided by a super-efficient dealer Ling chose and it was delivered by a super-efficient 73-year old gentleman driver!
These are the best prices of quality cars anywhere, ordered with military precision and a sense of humour equal to Steve Martin! I would probably not have seriously considered contract hire if I hadn't seen Ling's website.
I'll definitely be back."

Your dealer was excellent, a very friendly guy delivered my BMW Z4 on time."

What Craig doesn't say is that he owns a small executive airline, with several twin engine executive planes, helicopters and also some fun planes like three ex-RAF Bulldogs. Craig has taken me for aerobatics in one of these, and looping the loop was fantastically brilliant.

Jacqueline, I must tell everyone that your new car arrived with a couple of scratches; you are taking digital photos of them and I am getting the delivery company to pay for repairs. Also, you wonder where the spare wheel is, in your email yesterday? Well, a Megane CC has an aerosol of gunk instead - it's all the rage these days!
