Unbeliveable dealer.

[shabba]

Just had my car for a week now.. very impressed so far.
Took car for mot on saturday as dealer had forgot to mot it, anyways it passed.
But when i bought the car i noticed no spare wheel, its a 172.
Dont worry the dealer says ill have one in for saturday, unbeliveably they order a 15inch steely in. Mine has 16in alloys so ive now had to drive round for a week and a day without a spare.
Ive to ring them tomorrow lunchtime to check that the new one is in.

Hmm, you want a matching alloy. Mine has a straight replacement alloy, so I presume that's what it should have, although it could depend on the year etc.

Steel rims only go up to 15inches, so you would have thought being a renault dealership they would know what type of wheels it had.

yep mine had a replacement alloy aswell.

all 172's came with a 16inch 5spoke wheel with a 195/45 conti sport tyre

[Leeshez]

At least you can put a spare in the boot or even get one.

My 172 came with a spare 17" alloy, none of that space saver rubbish.

At least you've got a spare, my 225 and the missus 182 don't even have a spare, just cans of foam!! lol

 

[quickshift]

182 dont have a spare do they

 

[alexbleubolt]

no, they don't have the storage compartment int he boot

 

[quickshift]

thought as much just that mines a import so u know thought the cheeky monkeys forgot it

instead got 2 tyre foams woooooo yea

 

[shabba]

Well got spare alloy (with tyre) today, and also my multi-changer fixed, but they still havent done my micro internal sensor (it buzzes by the internal lights) or fixed my drivers side window rattle, got to book it in again.
Only had the car a week and for two days its been in with them.
