Red Edition 30 - Watford
« on: April 13, 2012, 07:20:25 pm »
Spotted driving past Citygate Watford as I was pulling out of VW after they broke my oil filler cap and agreed to replace after I kicked off when checking my oil this morning......bloomin Stealers!!!

Looked nice and shiny in red  :happy2:

Yes mate, had my car serviced on the Tuesday and noticed they had broken my oil filler cap so was just taking it back so they could replace.....and pick up the cost!

What is your experience of Citygate?

What colour is your Eddie?

Ive never had a problem with citygate,been taking my cars there for a fair few years now,but they did try to get me to have cam belt changed 3 months early and the cars only done 19000 mls.
If my memory serves me right i picked my car up at about 4pm and your silver ED30 was at the back of the carpark, mine was the steel grey on an 08 plate.

Love the steel grey mate, very nice  :happy2:

Probably not mine then as I was there in the morning around 9.30 for about 20 mins!

Oh well, will keep my eye out for you in future.

Yep Citygate have generally been ok but have had to bring them up on a few issues over the last 2 years of ownership!

I used to use Citygate in colindale then moved out to the sticks and took my cars to Watford never had really had a problem with them Rich.

I dropped my car off at 9.20am so it probably was you sitting in the ED30 in the lower car park.

I had to have the passenger side resprayed (by Citygate) after the scrapped my car down a wall or something. Then left the brake fluid cap off and that splashed all over the engine bay. That was Ruislip to be fair but will never take it back them.

Every experience with a stealer has been poor.....they're like the McDonalds of the restaurant world. Good indie is always better (for me anyway)
