alexckma · 09-27-2010, 01:14 PM

I am trying to get a courtesy car... but everytime it's either a crummy... I dunno what... toyota or nothing...

Can I specifically request?

if your talking about autowest bmw in richmond, bc. You can request for a bmw for a courtesy car, when you book an appointment. And they will try their best to get you a bmw.

Ya, they gave me a Toyota once. I told them that it just won’t do, so they switched it to a 328. I felt kind of like an elitist snob but whatever...

I got a Camery too but better then taking public transit.

It's only natural that they will reserve their best courtesy cars for the baller customers driving M's, X6, 7 series, etc. The 3 series is on the low end of the price spectrum sorry to say. With that said, you might have more luck getting a good car earlier in the morning. I got an X3 at 9:00am appointment once, and a 328xi at 8:30am, and a camry at a 1:00pm appointment.

I usually get BMW loaners at Autowest. X3, 135, 328. But once I got a Nissan Sentra when I dropped by with the HPFP problem without an appointment.

I've always gotten a BMW from Brian Jessel.

Never been to autowest for service.

Switch to Brian Jessel....I get a 335i everytime...

**Matt** · 09-29-2010, 01:44 PM

mostly get versa, corolla from autowest. Though have had a clubman wagon and a 323i. Jessel gave us a 2010 x3 3.0i which was dec.

Have asked fro a BMW when setting an appt. 3 weeks in advance but they still say it's all about availability. Get there early and hope you get one.

last time i got a matrix, n this time i requested for a bimmer loaner, and gave me x3 which only drove 14xx km yesterday, hopfully i can pick up my car today

Blackadder · 09-30-2010, 02:42 PM

I've had my car in at Brian Jessel 3 times so far and each time they gave me a BMW loaner.

1st & 2nd time = 2009 X3
3rd time = 2010 328

I have yet to have a bad experience at Brian Jessel.

TwinPowerF30 · 09-30-2010, 10:29 PM

never had a bmw loaner in my life. auto west gave camry hybrid. brian jessel gave a mazda 3 and other time they made me rent a jeep a few blocks away at enterprise.

gaifaun · 09-30-2010, 11:13 PM

^ looool Camry hybrid. thats what my father got from auto west when he dropped his 7 off, he got an X3 another time though.

I go to BMW store for servicing, it was awesome. they gave me a choice of 335i's or 335d or 128i convertible. I chose the 128i because it was summer.
