Deborah says... I would recommend Lingscars to anyone. You made the whole experience of leasing a car enjoyable from beginning to end! You made us laugh when filling out the forms, which has to be a first.... Your website is hilarious. Lingo is really efficient and easy to use. I would def use you again. Excellent delivery of my new V70 Estate.

Surprisingly, Debs, you are not an Antique Dealer, but a "desk manager" whatever that is!!! Usually these big Volvo estates have very specific customers. But I hope you enjoy it. Thanks so much for the kind comments, especially about the LINGO... I am very proud of that. Filling out forms has to be one of the worst things about the Internet, so I try to spice them up a bit. Too much for some people, but I ignore the moaners :) Glad you liked everything. -

Ganesh says... Hi Ling, as I mentioned previously, I am in the motor trade and have been for 16 years! Your service has been faultless. You kept me informed and updated at all stages of the transaction. Very well done to you and your team! How it should be done!!! Excellent delivery of the A4 Cabriolet, very prompt.

Well, another motor trade customer. You are General Sales Manager at Crown Motors. I get many because the deals are so good. I have an A4 Cab, too, these are lovely cars. What a shame you had the last one made. I will really miss mine when it goes back. Thanks for the comments, I really try my hard to be the best in the motor trade (not that hard), hehehe. -

George says... This is the second time I have used Ling and it will not be my last. I found her level of service excellent and nothing was too much trouble for her. Mail updates were received on a daily basis regarding delivery dates and any problems that might crop up. Excellent delivery, by very polite delivery man who talked me through the car. Thanks Ling
PS- Don't eat the corn on the cob sweets, they must be an acquired taste. C5 very good.

Oliver says... Dear Ling
Thank you for your assistance in sorting the SAAB 9-3. The car is great, the dealer was brilliant and the contracted price is superb. Lingo was brilliant, I liked kicking you. The sweets are nasty. Thanks once more and we'll be in touch next time we need a car! Excellent delivery.

Philip says... We would definitely use Ling again. Contacting her is very easy through the lingo system and she replies quickly. It is easy to see what is happening and that documents faxed or posted have been safely received. For the car we leased (Astra Sport Hatch) Ling was also the cheapest by far. Car arrived when scheduled and condition was good.

Well, well, well, you are a sales exec in a Motor group, Phil, so I am very happy that you chose me for your new car! I cut all overheads to the bone to make the car the cheapest in the market, no one can be more efficient than me. Glad you loved the LINGO system. You were great to deal with. Go drive the Astra, everyone loves those cars. I did my dissertation near Christchurch - on Hegistbury Head! So I know it well. Without Hengistbury Head it is probable that most of the town of Christchurch and all of Christchurch Harbour would cease to exist! -

The website works very well with the Lingo area keeping you informed. That must have taken a lot of time and effort to get that right! Would definitely recommend you to others. Thanks very much. My Honda CR-V arrived spot on time delivered by a pleasant driver.

Car arrived on day of delivery at 8.30am. Would definitely deal with Ling again. We have bought two cars from her, one more on the way. Her emails are very funny. Car arrived promptly. Excellent.

Exactly, Roland! "No one else offers this level of professional service" - I would be even happier if some of the finance companies would read this and pay attention; they are more concerned that I have a flashing gif on my website, or that we have some fun, so call me "unprofessional". They make me so mad, they don't realise that things can be fun AND good. Thanks for comments, they are really special, hope you have a great time in your new Citroen C-Crosser. -

Neil says... Had a few hiccups (mostly from the dodgy sweets Ling sent) but got there in the end. Not your fault at all Ling. You have always responded when asked. It was Merc themselves who slowed the process. Dealership was good and car delivered when promised by courteous and knowledgeable delivery guy. All in all painless, except for Mercedes Finance slowing it a little. Your service was efficient and fun. Delivery was courteous and on time. Thanks Ling, speak to you in a couple of years.

Yes... it is amazing. Merc have been giving me grief lately, saying I should not use their logo on my site, but they are wrong; it is entirely legal. They try to bully me. They should concentrate on improving their finance service, eh? They should be pleased I sell cars for them in these times. Your new C-Class saloon is a lovely car, Neil, hope you enjoy it! You live in Liverpool. Make sure you lock the car! -

I cannot find fault with the service you provided, it was in fact excellent. We look forward to arranging our next vehicle with you when our lease is up. Thanks for all your help. No problem with delivery, but driver said car mats would be sent to us, but they haven't.
Editor Note:
Well, Kathryn, I will send you a set of Ling mats, then. Usually cars do not come with mats, but when they promise, they should deliver, eh? Another super Fiesta delivery. As you are a teacher, I am pleased to say your spelling was 10/10, hahaha! Don't let the kids near the car. -

Phyllis says... In this world of so called professionals, it's refreshing to find one who fits the profile. All costs are shown upfront, nothing hidden, emails answered immediately, all queries dealt with and promises kept. Hope to do more business. Poor delivery. Supplier caused me a wasted day due to un-thoughtfulness.
Phyllis Boland
52 Woodgate Drive Streatham

Editor Note:
Phyllis, the delay was caused by the delivery driver being ill that day. The supplier says: "I apologise for the delay from Peugeot Motor Company which was completely unavoidable and neither a fault of Steve or myself. This was just unfortunate that it happened to this vehicle. The car was immaculate when it left the dealership on Saturday Morning. The delivery from the dealership to end user was an unfortunate occurrence". This is all well and good, but it caused you a big problem with time off work, etc. I know that. Sometimes people need to realise how customers' days can be screwed up by these events. I'm a bit powerless when this happens, I have to leave the delivery in the hands of the supplier, but I wasn't too happy either. Apart from that, I am so pleased that you liked the rest of the service, and that you think I kept all MY promises. Glad you love the new 4007! I will keep an eye on these deliveries and if this is regular thing, I would terminate this supplier. Thanks so much for the rest of your lovely comments in the letter. -

David says... Where do I start? The company I originally chose to lease with was extremely poor with their communications, they *fobbed* me off with numerous fibs regarding delivery dates, availability and after 8 weeks of waiting, I looked elsewhere. The leasing company in question is, supposedly, "Flexible" with their leasing (small clue...) (That will be Flexxilease then, hahaha - Ling).
In complete despair, I then trawled the web for another supplier and came across "Lings Cars". At first I thought that the website was something straight out of VIZ and it was joke site. I soon discovered that I was right on both accounts!
Tentatively, I made an enquiry for a Citroen C Crosser and within minutes, I had a reply directly from Ling herself. Still somewhat suspicious, I completed the order form and waited. To cut a long story short... From my initial enquiry to delivery, was less than 3 weeks, which was breathtaking compared to the "Flexible car leasing company"...(That will be Flexxilease AGAIN, hahaha - Ling)
When you scrape away Ling's "veneer" of the wacky letters, sweets, noodles, chopsticks, insane emails/LINGOS and the *loony* comments from the Mental Oriental, which you will be bombarded with, you will discover an amazing company, which is a model to all companies offering such services to the public. Ling's usage of new technologies and CRM (Customer Relationship Management), is amazingly accurate and efficient, with response times that most companies can only dream about. The LINGO communication tool is fab! Never before have I found a company that speaks with such honesty and cuts out all of the normal formal b**l S**t normally found with leasing companies. Having had the Crosser delivered today, I am now starting the sourcing / ordering process of another car for my business and yes, my first port of call is the "wise one from the (North) East".
I would recommend Ling's Cars to anyone thinking about leasing a car. It has completely restored my faith in customer service, plus it makes the whole process FUN!! Now, isn't that novel in this day and age!!!!

Nope, you are not my brother, dad, uncle, etc etc :). You are a real life customer. Thanks so much for that letter David. You are Director of a Property Management company with HQ in Canterbury (but you are actually the No.1 letting company in the UK! - I give you hyperlink above... so I really appreciate your sweet comments. I do know the trouble you have gone through with that other leasing company; there are many like that. They all have glossy front-ends, but so very little behind it except an office of staff who couldn't care less, it seems. This industry is unregulated and often, quite terrible. Go and drive your C-Crosser! Glad I could show you what I can do, and how I compare :) -

Wayne says... I've just taken delivery of a new Honda Civic Type-R. Service from Ling is unbelievable. Kept up to date the whole way. Very easy. Just pick your car or budget and sit back. No need to search anywhere else on the net, you won't find cheaper. I was a little wary at first but I'm proof and the cars here on my driveway. Why pay ridiculous deposit high monthly payments and then at the end go through the hassle of trying to sell your car? Nobody wants to give the price you want. Thanks LING. See you again in 22months.

Ant says... Ling and her company are superb. The informal and relaxed way she conducts her business takes out the "fear-factor" when it comes to leasing. But, at the same time, the information and communication she provides along the way is quick and accurate. I will use Ling again and have already recommended her to friends and family. Poor delivery, my new Vauxhall Astra Sport Hatch had small scratches.
I photographed the scuffs and scratches....I think the driver's in trouble for not checking over it properly! I'm sure they'll pretty much polish out but now I've recorded them on the sheet I've covered myself against any comebacks....had it not been for your guide I'd have probably just signed the form without checking it, so thanks.
