Ignis

Yeah, hopefully your dealer will be better helijohn
The annoying thing is they said to come down to the dealer straight away and they will top it up straight away no waiting, so I repeated the fact that we wouldn't have to wait if we came down when I got off the phone she said that's correct, then I confirmed it just one more time and she said no waiting.......... Guess what we got down there and waited 40 minutes

Back in Brum I had a couple of dealers not too far away but now it is an hour drive to one so I won't want to be going back and forth. There is only one dealer nearby and is Ford. They tell me they can do the service but I trust them even less with my baby.

And what part of the country was your dealer?
I do like the Ignis though I am lusting after a 2018 Jimny.

Bromley in Kent.
Went to Canterbury in the Ignis, motorway and A roads and it was a joy to drive couldn't really hear the engine either at 70 ish I was impressed

I have dealt with Ford for about five years before we got the Ignis and the service was excellent, the health check even involved a mini video they sent to me of the underside of the car with the technician commentating on the condition of parts that the camera was zooming in on,.

I have been super impressed with the Celerio. Apart from some initial things like getting it soundproofed (gosh it was noisy especially on certain road surfaces) and protected underneath I have found it to be a pocket rocket. I realise I am used to a more sedate performance of 4x4s but this really does go. I read somewhere it was the cheapest car in the world to run!! The economy was the reason I got it (cheap to buy and no road tax etc.etc.) followed by its having a high seating position and then its being small.
I do like the Ignis and with allgrip it sounds like a superb motor.
Would you take your Suzuki to a Ford dealership for its first service (not the free service) though?

The ignis is £10.00 Road tax so not to sad either, I would if they could guarantee to use all suzuki parts so it doesn't affect the warranty.
