Thank you for your little video, that is a nice touch.
The car is superb, but sad to say that as expected my wife has purloined it already!!
On a more serious note, can I just say that the experience of renting a car from you has been exceptional. This is the third renting contract that I have had with you and your service and dedication to the customer has gone from strength to strength. Congratulations to you and your team. Your Lingo system is simply the best I have ever encountered.
I have never been into 'chatting' but the last few weeks has changed my perception of that as well.

Robb, well, thanks. Wow!
I am very close to having LINGO V2 launched which will be even better than this LINGO (this one is not perfect).
LINGO is certainly better than the previous email system, it allows me better speed and keeps everything transcribed. In many cases this has proved a Godsend, especially when a dealer messes up. If you can imagine, on my side I include all the dealer conversations too. So, if anything ever goes wrong, everyone has full details.
LINGO means I never miss a message and it is all very secure and I can be fast.
I won the BT NatWest Everywoman award Here in December for LINGO (given by Sarah Brown, PM wife - but not for long haha), I was so pleased. LINGO V2 will have tabs for different cars and be easier to use. I am hoping to be able to provide some white label service to different big companies to provide cars to customers, with generic LINGO powering it. Not everyone likes my own crazy branding :) Hahaha.
Glad you love the car, everyone is happy with these Mazdas. Thanks for giving the driver a lift back to the main road. :) -

Fraser says... It has been a pleasure dealing with Ling Cars. Ling's clever website is informative, packed with useful information and as a bonus, amusing.
I needed a little car to dap to and from work, the Citroen C2 I got is brilliant and virtually runs on air.
Ling Valentine may present herself as slightly "wacky" but this belies a very astute business woman (hatfuls of awards!). I would recommend Ling Cars without hesitation - check them out if you want a great deal.

You were fun to deal with, very fast on my LINGO and we had a great time! You even uploaded a nice pic of yourself: With all that money you save on fuel, you can afford a new PC, now!

I have already started recommending you to my unenlightened friends who still think they must own their cars. I especially like the 'Lingon' pages where I can trace all our communications in one page and the ongoing mileage check graph at the top to monitor contractual usage- really useful! Many thanks.

Clair says... WOW!
Ling is certainly on the ball!
The Renault Koleos was delivered on time and with no fuss. Ling ALWAYS kept us informed of exactly what was happening, and when. The speed and ease of the whole process was nothing more than fantastic - I can't rave about Ling enough. Good delivery, car arrived on the correct date but at 6.30pm.
Editor Note:
Clair, sounds good! Maybe part of the reason for the slightly late in the day delivery is because the delivery driver was English and didn't stand a chance with your address :) This is like being in China when you suddenly get a word in Cantonese and that is very similar to Welsh, hahaha. Totally incomprehensible :) However, you seem over the moon with everything else, and that's the main thing. Lovely to deal with you. -

I have to admit that Ling is a little scary but so what – she's good at what she does and even though I asked plenty of questions there has always an answer. So full marks. As to leasing another car the answer is a definite yes and I would heartily recommend anyone to use her 10/10. Excellent delivery, on time. No hassle, well done!

Ling is as nutty as a bag of M&M's. But – she is also hard working & 100% professional. Getting a lease car sounded a bit daunting, but it was quick, effortless and even fun. Hats off to Ling, I've not met many people with her refreshing approach to business. Took my money and made me smile! Oh, and the car is perfect and was delivered bang on time. A really happy customer. Excellent. Perfect service, delivery on time, and faultless.

You do a Top Gear road-test for me, in the letter :) Hahahaha, yes, these cars are great, but i had a big fight with Citroen about the way the market it as unmistakEably German, especially as they mis-spell it (IMHO) in their advertising. A much better bet though, than the latest Laguna. Renault are ashamed of putting a 1.5 diesel engine in it, they hide that fact! So pleased that you are happy, my Citroen dealers do a very good job! I also have support from Citroen UK. A good company! -

My Vauxhall Corsa SRI is a superb car for the money I paid, it feels great to drive a really nice car and also to know you got a superb deal on it as well. Ling answered all of my initial queries very quickly and kept me informed every step of the way from placing the order to taking delivery of the car. Delivery was on time and the delivery driver took the time to show me around all of the features in
the car and made sure I was happy with everything before he left.
Very glad to have found Ling's website when I was looking for a new car, I've received an excellent deal and will definitely be back in 2 years time when my current deal runs out. Thanks again Ling, you're a star.

Having said that, it is a small thing and you have a V6 2.7 fully-loaded, big, fast, leather-seat car for just £184/month. No complaints about the price, then??? :))) Thanks for the letter!

Stephen says... Dear Ling,
Apologies for not dropping you a line sooner, but the first month with our new Nissan Qashqai has gone so fast. Thanks for your help and offering such a blinding deal. You deserve the business for your fun attitude and prompt replies to queries. Do you always work at 8pm???
The car arrived on time, immaculate and by a very polite and cheerful driver. Well done, you! We will be back.
ps. The offer of a free lunch is still on, to beat your own free lunch offer - at our restaurant!
Editor Note:
Stephen, yes, like you I often work evenings :). I have given you hyperlink for the free lunch offer. There are 50,000 visitors to my webpage every month, so many of them will be very pleased at your "FREE" offer. Hahahaha! Now, you will be damn busy! Here is your Dec 2007 evening menu:

Roy says... We went to at least 10 other lease-hire providers and told them all to try and match Ling's price. The closest alternative would have cost us over £1000 more over the hire period. Ling's website is funny but her prices are seriously good. Excellent delivery, clear, concise and honest.
Editor Note:
Well, here is another professional company, Blackburn Griffiths Ltd is a consulting civil engineering company in Cardiff... so Roy, I take your letter very seriously. Thanks for the comments. I really do my best and am so pleased to get a letter like this. Thanks. I will say the reason the Merc was cheaper than everyone else is that I treat it like a can of beans. I don't add crazy premium for a badge or a name. It makes no difference to me if you have a Fiesta, a Range Rover or a Merc... I simply treat you the same and don't try to make a massive profit. -
