I can see the problem there m8 - you can't be expected to know everything about several ranges of cars.Take your point - the agency staff are given training on all of our models (Clio, Captur, Twingo, Kadjar, ZOE, Megane, Trafic, Renault Sport, etc etc) however there's bound to be knowledge gaps which is why we aim to have a 'specialist' from RUK on each vehicle on stand at all times where possible. I was with Alpine this year and flicking between the two.
But arguably, the RS section is the flagship representation of the brand and at a place such as Goodwood - there really should be a handful of dedicated staff there. These dealership tents that pop-up in shopping centres and the like - fair enough. They are there simply to spark the interest of the customer or entice them with low finance deals. At a motoring event however, you have a more focused, knowledgeable and enthusiastic passing of foot traffic.
Seems like a bit of a wasted opportunity to me - but I could be wrong.
