The White stuff

The Government scrappage scheme gave me a welcome opportunity to get a new car, and probably the last car I will ever own (I'm 74). Your frequent mention of the Hyundai offers sent me the walking distance to TW White & Sons in Addlestone Road, in Weybridge. Their performance was truly outstanding. I was received by Danial James, Sales Executive. He is a nice-looking, well-groomed young man who manages to be friendly and very polite yet enormously professional. After your support for the Hyundai offer, he didn't really have to "sell" me the car, but certainly would have easily done so if necessary. I was impressed at how smoothly the scheme worked. I just took my ancient Renault Twingo in, with about three documents, signed one bit of paper, and they handled the rest. Similarly, taking delivery of the Hyundai (I got the i10 petrol 1.2 Classic) two days later was a smooth and simple transaction (they even generated the tax disc in house on the spot). I am enormously happy with the car, and with the scheme. As a bonus, Danial has restored my faith in the younger generation. Very many thanks to TW White & Sons, and to Danial James in particular.
